‍What is Construction Quality Control?

Construction quality control refers to the practice of ensuring that a team is meeting the client’s standards, requirements, and guidelines on a jobsite. A variety of tests and inspections will be employed to make sure that a unit’s quality is up to par. 

Construction quality control is tested at various levels of completion, both to ensure that a construction team’s work will pass inspection and to avoid expensive reworks.

While every project is different, there are a few key areas that all construction teams should focus on before getting started. For the best work possible, Eyrus recommends the following construction quality control measures be put in place on every job site.

1. Quality Personnel

• Background Checks
• Worker Profiles
• Certification Documentation
• Emergency Contacts 

‍Construction projects have only become more complex in recent times. A project’s workforce is no different. Having a construction workforce mgement software that tracks key insights—like the ones listed above—is crucial in ensuring teams are able to complete a project according to code. Eyrus puts all construction workforce’s information into a centralized database that is simple for teams to manage. Read all about the construction workforce data that can be viewed here!

2. Quality Communications

• Mass Text Messaging
• Daily Reporting
• Evacuation Notifications

‍Speaking of complex worksites, communication is even more difficult with different zones, contractors, subcontractors, etc, all involved in the construction project timeline. Being able to reach the workforce, as well as having channels to report on progress, is paramount to construction quality control. Be sure to have an established system of communication to make sure all involved parties are on the same page.

3. Quality Reporting

• Daily Logs
• Notes
• Images
• Attendance
• Safety Reports

With accurate and real-time reporting, construction teams will be way more prepared to ensure quality during the construction process. An advanced field reporting software will allow project stakeholders to see the full picture of a jobsite’s progress. Quality reporting will provide a wide range of benefits for construction teams, but automated data capture will be especially powerful for quality control.

4. Quality Subcontractor Management

• Workforce Tracking
• Access Control
• Daily Reporting

Working with subcontractors is very common on a jobsite, especially when a project has an above average amount of moving parts. Make sure the workforce has a strategy to view details about subcontractors, are able to manage the level of access they have on the jobsite, and utilize a method to track progress each day. Managing subcontractors can be made very simple and automated by modern construction IoT.

5. Quality Forecasting

• Project Forecasting
• Scheduling
• Management Overview

‍In today’s climate, there are no shortages of hiccups that affect construction leaders, along with their teams. Project managers need to be able to make huge decisions in a short amount of time; don’t make these decisions without the right construction data & analytics. Construction workforce management software can allow you to see the full picture when it’s time to alter the schedule and forecast the rest of the project.
