Quality assurance, control, and awareness development.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control
-
Develop
Develop program specific controls that can be used throughout the life of any project. Improving the buildout dynamic to ensure proper quality assurance from inception.
Establish quality standards - set specific, measurable standards for each critical process
Create procedures - develop detailed procedures for quality inspection, testing, and monitoring
Train personnel - ensure all relevant staff are trained on quality control procedures and standards
Establish corrective action processes -create procedures for addressing and correcting quality issues
Use statistical process control -implement statistical methods to monitor and control process variation
-
Metrics
QA/QC metrics and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) is crucial for monitoring and improving quality processes.
Quantifiable Measurement - metrics and KPIs provide quantifiable data to assess quality objectively. This allows for precise tracking of quality levels over time, rather than relying on subjective assessments
Early Problem Detection - by consistently monitoring metrics, you can identify quality issues early, often before they become significant problems. This enables proactive rather than reactive quality management
Process Improvement - analyzing metrics, we identify which processes are underperforming and need improvement. This data-driven approach helps prioritize quality improvement efforts
Decision Making - metrics provide concrete data to support decision-making. This can help in allocating resources, changing processes, or investing in new equipment or training
Continuous Improvement - regular monitoring of metrics encourages a culture of continuous improvement. As teams see progress in the numbers, it motivates further enhancements
Root Cause Analysis - when quality issues arise, metrics can help in identifying root causes. By analyzing data patterns, we pinpoint where in the process problems are occurring
Regulatory Compliance - maintaining certain quality metrics is crucial for regulatory compliance. Having clear KPIs helps ensure these standards are consistently met.

Audit
We ensure that the construction work meets specified standards, regulatory requirements, and client expectations.
On-Site Inspection - visual inspection of ongoing work and completed elements. Verification that work matches approved plans and specifications. Assessment of workmanship quality. Identification of any defects or non-conformances
Material Quality Assurance - verification of material storage and handling practices. Review of material testing processes and results. Confirmation that materials meet project specifications
Review of subcontractor quality control practices
Environmental Compliance - assessment of environmental protection measures. Review of waste management practices
Quality Control Records - examination of daily reports, checklists, and quality control logs. Review of non-conformance reports and resolution documentation
Regulatory Compliance - verification of compliance with local building codes and regulations. Review of any regulatory inspection reports
