The Quality Assurance officer of the project is responsible for arranging and managing the reviews
and the report is given to the client for inspection. Once the report is received the client will give a
review about it to the project manager hence suitable actions can be taken.
Ideally, an independent body which is appointed by client the conducts these types of review and
the cost for the reviews should be included in the project budget.

At the highest of levels Quality Management involves planning, doing, checking, and acting to
improve project quality standards. Project Management Institutes Project Management Body of
Knowledge breaks the practice of Quality Management into three process groups: Quality Planning
(QP), Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC). The following sections define how this
project will apply each of these practice groups to define, monitor and control quality standards.

or the client and the consultant will analyses the work and provide a report to the
client about the material standard and the work quality.

3.2 Quality Assurance
