Reviewer 1 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

It is obvious that much time and efforts are put into this research work, and I appreciate it. However, I have some observations, as follow.

1. The abstract needs to be improved. There are too many words to introduce the research background, but there is a lack of explanation of the research methods, research conclusions, and research contributions.

2. The keywords fail to highlight the main research question of this paper.

3. In section 2, the literature review is too long and lacks structural logic.

4. In section 3, there is a shortage of rigorous academic research methods.

5. The conclusions are too short and needs to highlight the contribution of research innovations and strengthen the explanations of future research.

6. Make a grammar check. There are some minor problems.

Reviewer 2 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The objective of this work was to present the concept of a general framework for managing packaging defects aligned with the company's requirements.

In my opinion, the description of the problem is clear, but what the effective contribution of this work was is not clear. My suggestion would be to rewrite the conclusions, clearly demonstrating the extent to which this work is an important contribution to for quality assurance in logistics packaging.

 Figures 2 and 3 should be improved as they are difficult to read.
