Cross-Border Shopping: QC Management with Basetao Spreadsheet for Nike
In the competitive world of cross-border e-commerce, quality control (QC) is paramount—especially when purchasing premium brands like Nike through third-party platforms. Implementing a systematic QC workflow not only minimizes returns and disputes but also enhances customer trust. This article explores how utilizing Basetao
Step 1: Structured Data Entry for Nike Products
Use the Basetao spreadsheet to create a standardized QC template with columns for:
- Product SKU/ID: Nike's unique product identifier (e.g., DJ4701-100
- Inspection Criteria: Stitching, logo accuracy, color consistency, sole integrity, and size labeling.
Step 2: Record and Tag Defects
Assign a QC inspector to:
- Mark items as Pass/Fail
- Upload photo evidence (e.g., close-ups of flaws) directly into shared spreadsheet cells.
- Flag recurrent issues (e.g., inconsistent shoe tongue placement) to suppliers.
Step 3: Automated Supplier Reporting
Leverage spreadsheet formulas or integrations to:
- Generate weekly defect summaries for manufacturers.
- Track rectification rates—e.g., "Size discrepancies reduced by 40% post-feedback."
