Managing QA/QC

Executing effective enterprise quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) requires a consistent approach to jobsite observations and a structured method of analyzing and reporting all of the gathered information. Often, construction companies lack the ability to gather, analyze, and share critical quality information in a standard way. At the enterprise level, it is difficult for executives to track QA/QC compliance data for projects and subcontractors in a consolidated, timely fashion. Without visibility into this critical aspect of quality, project risk increases. Ed McNeill, senior vice president at Turner Construction Co., New York City, decided to find a better way.
