Quality control in the warehouse – from gut feeling to a controllable process

By August 1, 2025No Comments

Why structural quality control is essential

Every warehouse worker regularly sees irregularities:

  • Boxes that are left open
  • Damaged packaging
  • Products that smell or feel different

But often, nothing is done with it. It stays a remark or a gut feeling, without registration or follow-up.

The result?

  • Customers receive poor-quality goods
  • Return costs increase
  • Damage to reputation

What does a good quality control process look like?

  1. Set up control checkpoints for each process step: upon receipt, in storage, during picking
  2. Clear checklists and measurement points
  3. Photo or comment for every irregularity
  4. Automatic reporting

How Babeldat handles this for you

  • Checklists per product group, customer, or process phase
  • Photo registration directly via scanner or mobile device
  • Deviation triggers that automatically create tasks
  • Quality dashboards per supplier or customer
  • Link to warranty or return processes

This way, quality becomes measurable, controllable, and—most importantly—improvable.
