Making sure work is acceptable one location at a time(ped,pole and span)is the only way to avoid clean up,which turns into a money looser for all.When the tracking of clean up is a bigger project than forward progress then management (both sides of the table) has failed.Thats why it's called Quality Assurance. Nothing else works.Post construction inspection should be a verification what is already known,ie. the work was done to spec and is acceptable.
Unfortunatly it doesn't work that way very often.Execution is not as easy as it seems.
> Plantman has it down pat. As a project manager I have to QA the QA. So I look at some of what they wrtie up, but more importantly I look at what they may have missed. Timing is the key overall, the sooner the gigs are turned over to the contractor, the sooner you'll see the fruits of the efforts.

What are you using? How well does it work for you? In your opinion, what does a good QC program need to do? If you can, send me a copy of your program. If that's not asking for too much.
