Bryon,

It probably varies considerably from company to company. Probably the best 
approach is to understand what your customers / users expect, and how well 
controlled your process are to meet their expectations. If you can produce a 
product that meets expectations, you can safely skip inspection. You would 
probably want to perform inspection a sample basis to verify that the process 
hasn't changed.
