Quality Control

Quality control involves a variety of quality measurements defined in the quality plan. These measurements should be items meaningful to determining whether the product of the project is of the quality required. Quality measurements can be statistical measurements that determine process control (whether the manufacturing process is within the acceptable tolerance of variation), or they can be more simple measurements for nonmanufactured goods, such as software, including walkthroughs, code inspections, and audits.

Quality control outputs help provide the feedback for improvements, acceptance, and, sometimes, rework.
