Quality & Certifications

Independent distribution lives or dies on trust. Every component GlobX ships passes a documented, ISO 9001-certified quality process - from supplier verification to incoming inspection to the Certificate of Conformance in the box. This page shows exactly what that process is, and the certificates behind it.

How every shipment is inspected

  1. Supplier verification. Sources are qualified before any order: business verification, track record, and escalation rules for high-risk part categories.
  2. Documentation check. Purchase documentation, lot and date-code information and supplier certificates are matched against the order before goods are accepted.
  3. Incoming inspection. Packaging, labeling, markings, date codes, leads/coplanarity and moisture-barrier condition are inspected and recorded. The process is aligned with AS6081 counterfeit-avoidance practices for independent distribution - our guide to AS6081 vs AS6171 explains the standards.
  4. Escalation testing. Risk indicators trigger extended verification before release, arranged with test partners where required.
  5. Release with documentation. Shipment with Certificate of Conformance, full traceability, and MSL-correct packaging and handling (see our MSL guide).

Why this matters for obsolete and allocated parts

The open market is where counterfeit risk concentrates - and it is also the only market where discontinued components can still be found. A documented inspection chain is what makes independent distribution safe to use for exactly the parts that need it most: EOL, last-time-buy and allocation-constrained stock.
