From complaint to return, no mystery.
Intake, evaluation, quote, repair, final QC, and return shipment — the repair path in plain view before the scope goes back out.
1. Intake
Instrument details, customer complaint, serial/model information, and repair request context are captured.
2. Evaluation
The instrument is inspected and documented so the repair recommendation matches the actual condition.
3. Quote
The customer receives the proposed repair scope, evaluation summary, and commercial terms for approval.
4. Repair
Approved work moves through the appropriate path, such as optics, refiber, cosmetic work, or full rebuild.
5. Final QC
Before return, the instrument goes through quality-control review and return-readiness checks.
6. Return + records
The instrument is returned with the appropriate records so the customer has a clear repair trail.
Why this workflow matters
Scope repair is a trust problem as much as a technical problem. The buyer needs confidence that the instrument was evaluated, the repair decision made sense, and the returned scope was checked before shipment.
Complaint in plain English
The customer complaint gets captured first: dim image, broken fiber, poor visualization, visible distal damage, repeat issue, or other field reality.
Evaluation in shop language
The internal evaluation translates the complaint into repair-relevant observations: optics, light path, exterior condition, model family, prior repair context, and warranty review when applicable.
Quote without mystery
The quote should explain the repair recommendation instead of being just a number. That is why evaluation context follows the case into the quote.
QC before return
Final review checks return readiness and keeps the repair trail clear before shipment.
