Construction Quality Management Plan for WSI Blue Mountains TAFE Project No.19735

This document outlines the quality management plan for the construction of a new beauty therapy and complementary health classroom building at WSI Blue Mountains TAFE. It includes details on the project, organization, responsibilities, and interfaces, tools, environment, and interfaces, as well as quality planning, assurance, and control. The plan is guided by various quality standards and will involve measuring concrete quality using both destructive and nondestructive testing methods. Opportunities for quality improvement will be identified through random value stream mapping.

The table provides the particulars of the revisions that were made prior to preparing this
final document. Version 1 was included to address the growing concerns of dwindling
quality of concrete based on the continuous test results that are being done. Version 2
was included to redefine the concrete grades so that categorization would be facilitated.
There was also need to introduce tracking in a continuous real-time fashion hence
version 3 was included to finally realize this document.

1 INTRODUCTION
The project referred in this project quality plan is WSI Blue Mountains TAFE
project number 19735 (check the attached plans for full comprehension). The job
is titled: New Facility for Beauty Therapy and complementary Health classrooms
and offices. It will serve the two mentioned major functionalities hence it is
categorized under commercial buildings. The following documents were availed to
the quality team and used for the purpose of developing this report:
 Arch Plans (40 pages)
 Civil Plans (2 pages)
 Electrical Plans (7 pages)
 Hydraulic Plans (6 pages)
 Mechanical Plans (3 pages
 Structural Plans (11 pages)
2 PROJECT QUALITY MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW
2.1 ORGANIZATION, RESPONSIBILITIES, AND INTERFACES
Figure 1 shows the structural organization of the quality team with every member
having a well defined set of roles that is contributing to the overall objectives of the
project quality plan. Each quality team member is required to be conversant with
the listed quality standard documents and any amendments thereof hence
refresher training workshops will be organized and administered prior to the launch
of the project once all the essential project elements are kept in order
Name Role Quality Responsibility
Rex Grey Project Manager Quality mentoring & coaching
Sarah Scofield Team Leader Quality audits
Ferguson Alex Superintendent Quality Improvements and planning

3 PROJECT QUALITY MANAGEMENT
At the highest of levels Quality Management involves planning, doing, checking,
and acting to improve project quality standards. PMI PMBOK 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.

3.1 QUALITY PLANNING
Implementation of the quality control strategies will be guided by the following
standards:
 ISO 9000:2006 Quality management systems – Fundamentals and Vocabulary.
 ISO 9001:2008 Quality management systems – Requirements.
 AS/NZS ISO 10005:2006 Quality management systems - Guidelines for quality plans.
 AS ISO 10006-2003 Quality management systems - Guidelines for quality management
in projects.
 AS ISO 10013-2003 Guidelines for quality management system documentation.
 ISO 9004:2009 Managing for the sustained success of an organization - A quality
management approach.
 AS ISO 10007-2003 Quality management systems - Guidelines for configuration
management.
 HB 90.3 The Construction Industry - Guide to ISO 9001:2000
3.1.1 Measure Project Quality
Concrete quality shall be measured using both destructive and nondestructive testing
methods. This will include performing a series of compressive tests to ascertain their
strengths characteristics at every stage of curing. It should be noted that concrete
strength may differ depending on the designated use. For example, reinforcing concrete
for the columns and beams must be adequate in strength such that it holds firmly
against various stresses like flexural during settling
In this regard, a number of quality parameters shall be availed and determine
accordingly. Normally tests would be performed at every stage of building be it during
erection of piers and other supporting columns or when putting the slab. It must be
beyond reproach hence quality of workmanship shall closely be monitored as well.
3.2 QUALITY ASSURANCE
[The project quality team shall strive to ensure that all the applicable quality
standards as provided earlier are met and that systems to improve quality are
established such it is done in a continuous fashion. Continuous Improvement
efforts shall be led by a specially appointed quality team otherwise designated as
quality circle who shall directly act on behalf of the quality management team to
monitor and offer effective control of quality at the unit level.

3.2.1 Improve Project Quality
[As mentioned earlier, the quality of concrete will have to be improved
tremendously. By minimizing wastes during concrete making, we not only going to
boost quality but also minimize cost of reworks and production hence project
marginal cost is reduced. Opportunities for quality improvement shall be identified
by performing random value stream mapping so that bottlenecks can be identified
and eliminated in subsequent operations.
