Why Spreadsheets for QC Standardization?

Creating the QC Spreadsheet Framework

Apparel | Size measurement, Fabric flaws | <2% defect rate |
2. Inspection Flow Design
- Pre-inspection data entry (order details, expected specs)
- Physical inspection checklist (with conditional formatting for fail items)
- Photographic evidence columns (with image hyperlinks)
- Final disposition dropdown (Approved/Rejected/Need Review)
