8.1 Quality tools
Quality tool Explanation why
1. Flow Chart This tool could be used efficiently for determining the different flow
of tasks as per the schedule defined within the project management
list description (Tatiana, Oleksii and Vladimir 2018, pp, 154).
2. Cause and Effect
Diagram
This diagram would mostly represent the cause and effect in the form
of a fishbone diagram. This tool could be used whenever a certain
problem is detected. Thus, the necessary effect could be derived.
3. Checksheet This kind of sheet would be able to list the contained items based on
inspection and tests. The attribute for each test could also be listed.
The acceptance criteria for each of the conducted tests should be
listed (Timinsky and Marushchak 2018, pp. 24).

9.2 Close procurements (pp. 424-425)
In order to properly manage the procurement, the final project expectation should be made clear
from the stakeholders of the project (Kloppenborg, Tesch and Manolis 2014, pp. 14).
9.3 Knowledge management
The knowledge gathered during the development of the project could be gathered by noticing the
work of other people. This could be helpful for gaining an understanding about the standards of
work (Hillson 2014).
9.4 Lesson learned
The lessons learned could be strengthed by having a clear objective of the project. This would be
helpful for narrating the expected deliverables of the project.
