  4. SALIENT ASPECTS OF QUALITY ASSURANCE & QUALITY CONTROL CONSULTANCY FOR NSP MODERNIZATION & REHABILITATION WORKS UNDER APWSIP Y. BABU RAO, FIE; M.Tech; MIGS; ISRM.

  5. PREAMBLE In order to attain the best and sustainable quality of construction, Govt. and World Bank desired to appoint. THIRD PARTY QUALITY ASSURANCE/CONTROL CONSULTANTS to work in coordination with the Project Engineers.

  6. PRINCIPLES OF QUALITY • Quality planning prevents pathetic performance. Quality lives on long after the price is forgotten. • What is Quality? • Fit for purpose, suitable for the intended purpose.

  9. QUALITY PLANNING • to establish quality goals. • to identify the needs of work • to develop process which enables to produce the desired specifications. • to establish process controls

  10. QUALITY IMPROVEMENT • to establish infrastructure. • to establish project team. • to provide the team with resources training.

  11. QUALITY ASSURANCE • Assurance: The act of giving confidence, the • State of being certain or the act of Making certain. • Quality Assurance: The planned and systematic • activities implemented in a quality system so that quality requirements for a product will fulfilled.

QUALITY ASSURED BY QUALITY ASSURED BY • QUALITY CONTROL • CONTROL: An evaluation to indicate needed corrective responses, the act of guiding a process in which variability is attributable to a constant system of chance causes. • QUALITY CONTROL: The observation techniques and activities used to fulfill requirement for quality.

  13. PARTIES INVOLVED IN THE WORK TO ENSURE QUALITY • PARTY – I: Project Engineers • PARTY – II: Construction Agency • PARTY – III: Quality Assurance Consultants
