Traceability is moving from a special request to a normal sourcing expectation. Buyers want to know which material was used, which drawing revision was followed and which dimensions were checked.
For small CNC machined parts, traceability does not need to be complicated. A controlled drawing, material note, inspection focus and batch record can already reduce many sourcing problems.
Weeda Precision supports inspection discussions during quotation. When the buyer identifies critical features early, the inspection plan can be matched to the part's real function.
