Inspection services

Claims involving temperature-sensitive cargo will be our top priority and we will respond to your needs 24/7. We pulp products to determine their temperatures at the time of inspection. We check the equipment to be certain that the refrigeration units are operating properly, the required temperature settings have been correctly programmed, and the air chutes are correctly installed. We will confirm that the circulation of air in the trailer or rail car is not impeded by floor-loading, tight packing, or cargo loaded above the “red line”. We can, if you require, procure samples of the products and submit them to certified food testing laboratories for organic, quality, purity or microbiological testing.

Work In Process
Adjusters frequently ask if it is worth the cost to inventory claims that involve work in progress. More often than not the answer is yes. CSI's personnel have been trained to assess the product in process to accurately determine exactly what stage the product has been completed. We can then work with the manufacture to verify the exact costs for materials and labor to that point of process. In doing this and not using an approximate value or stage of process we have many times saved our clients thousands of dollars. The next time you have a Work In Process inventory please contact us and our staff would be happy to consult with you and discuss some options.

Finished Goods
This is a question that must be addressed whenever you have a manufacturing claim that has a Finished Goods component. Most manufacturers are not equipped or do not want to market damaged or secondary goods. Their reputation and brand recognition is in jeopardy if they were to directly sell a damaged product. We also understand his concern about having his goods out in his market place competing with his "First Quality" product. It takes a long time to gain brand recognition. Their Brand shouldn’t be jeopardized by putting his "Branded" product out in the market place if he has Brands & Labels coverage. CSI has years of experience developing and working with buyers worldwide that CSI can address the manufacturers concerns regarding their product and provide viable solutions for all parties.
