Quote - How would you set up the certification process?

I was afraid someone might ask me that. LOL.

But seriously the certification process has to be a measure against a standard / criteria that has to be agreed with between the stakeholders (example - SM / Rendo / Content Creator). In this way a check list can be made such as the following example:-

001 Are all geometries in the Geometries folder? yes / no.

002 Are all textures in the Textures folder? yes / no.

003 Are there absolutely NO exclamation marks in the file/folder name? yes / no / depends!

999 And so on....

This check list can be part of Rendo's package to the Content Creators so that the CC's can check it themself and submit it with the product to Rendo for verification.

The check list should be reviewed often based on customer feedback (we customers are also stakeholders) on the products.

The check list should be realistic and applicable, and not just a wish list.

I'm not sure if the check list should be made public or included in the product package sold. That maybe a bit of a touchy point. Just like all other manufacturers our company does not publicly display it's internal quality check reports or neither should it. At the end there is always a warranty period and of course the Law.

Most manufacturing companies have Quality Assurance accreditation, but that is a huge overhead of time / labour / costs that someone (dearly beloved consumers) has to pay for at the end of the day.

Therefore the check list should be part of the natural workflow and assistance to, but not a burdon to, the Content Creators.
