tasks ensures that the whole activity is completed. There are also other
kind of activities which must be followed in order to gain the optimal
value and ensure the project effectiveness (Eastham et al., 2014).
Organizations who are more focused on the future growth rather than

KEY POINT 1
• Plan quality management plan is also
responsible for defining certain
training schema. In large projects,
issues occurs while managing and
synchronize multiple teams (Goetsch
& Davis, 2014). If several team
involved in a same problem, the
project must follow a certain standard
to produce quality product or services
quality .
KEY POINT 2
• The quality assurance plan is
documented before the project
starts. This documents also define
certain training to ensure high
production rate and avoid internal
conflicts (Hwang & Ng, 2013). When a
team is been constructed through
electing appropriate expertise, a gap
analysis is also conducted to check
the knowledge gap among them.

QULAITY MANAGEMENT
PLAN
• Generally, every team member has their own
specialist area and they does not share the
same field knowledge among each other. A
training is essential in order set certain
protocols and standards. This protocols are
followed by the team members to ensure
required productivity.
