1. Quality Inspection & Testing Inspect raw materials, in-process work, and finished products Conduct tests using appropriate tools and methods Ensure compliance with specifications, drawings, and standards 2. Developing Quality Standards Define quality benchmarks and acceptance criteria Create inspection checklists and test procedures Align standards with industry codes (e.g., ISO, ASTM, etc.) 3. Documentation & Reporting Maintain inspection reports and quality records Document defects, deviations, and non-conformance reports (NCRs) Prepare daily/weekly quality reports 4. Non-Conformance Management Identify defects or issues Investigate root causes of quality problems Recommend corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) 5. Process Monitoring & Improvement Monitor production or construction processes Suggest improvements to enhance quality and efficiency Support continuous improvement initiatives (e.g., Lean, Six Sigma) 6. Compliance & Audits Ensure compliance with internal and external standards Participate in internal and external audits Verify adherence to safety and regulatory requirements 7. Coordination & Communication Work with production, design, and project teams Communicate quality issues and solutions clearly Provide guidance to technicians and workers 8.
