Qingdao, China 

June 30, 2025

Ocean Century (Qingdao) Industrial Co., Ltd., a leading provider of precision injection molding and sheet metal fabrication solutions, successfully completed its comprehensive mid-year inventory count on June 30th. This critical exercise provides a clear snapshot of current assets and lays a solid foundation for optimizing operations and service delivery throughout the second half of 2025.

For manufacturing enterprises like Ocean Century, rigorous bi-annual inventory checks (mid-year and year-end) are fundamental to operational health. They ensure accurate financial reporting, identify potential process inefficiencies or losses, enable precise production planning and material procurement, and ultimately guarantee the ability to meet customer commitments reliably and efficiently.

The June 30th count mobilized over 80 dedicated personnel from key support functions across the company. Staff from Marketing, International Trade, Quality Assurance, Sourcing, Human Resources, and Finance collaborated intensively with production teams. Their focus was meticulously auditing physical stock across vital operational hubs:

• Injection Molding Plastic Workshop —— More Injection Molding Services
• Metal Fabrication Workshop —— More Sheet Metal Fabrication Services
• Finished Goods Warehouse
• Semi-Finished Products Warehouse
• Raw Materials Warehouse
• Auxiliary Materials Warehouse

The process was characterized by Ocean Century's hallmark precision. Teams systematically verified items using unique inventory codes and descriptions. Crucially, the audit employed a rigorous three-way verification method:

• System Quantity: The recorded amount in the ERP system.
• Initial Count Tag Quantity: The physical count recorded during the primary stocktake.
• Audit Sample Quantity: A secondary, independent count conducted on a significant sample for validation.

Any discrepancies identified between these three figures were immediately flagged for detailed investigation to determine the root cause – whether due to data entry errors, processing lag, shrinkage, misplacement, or other factors.

"The thoroughness of our mid-year inventory reflects Ocean Century's unwavering commitment to operational discipline and transparency," stated a company spokesperson. "By ensuring absolute accuracy in our asset management, we directly enhance our ability to plan effectively, control costs, minimize waste, and, most importantly, deliver the consistent quality and reliability our global customers depend on. This precision-driven approach underpins our reputation for manufacturing and service excellence."

The insights gained from this inventory will directly inform strategic decisions for H2 2025, enabling Ocean Century to streamline workflows, optimize stock levels, and further strengthen its position as a trusted and efficient manufacturing partner.
