When should a QC Manager conduct a quality review?

A QC Manager should conduct a quality review continuously throughout the project timeline to ensure that quality standards are being met at every stage of the project. This proactive approach allows for the early identification and correction of issues, reducing the risk of defects or non-compliance later on. Continuity in quality reviews ensures that the processes are being followed and that the deliverables align with the established quality expectations, enhancing overall project outcomes.

Conducting quality reviews only at the end of the project would not allow for timely interventions or adjustments, which could lead to significant problems or rework. Waiting for complaints to arise or for stakeholders to request a review does not promote a culture of quality and may result in missed opportunities for improvement and risk management throughout the project's execution. Consistent quality assessments are integral to a successful project delivery.
