Quality management is a critical aspect of any construction project, ensuring that the final product meets or exceeds the expectations and requirements of stakeholders. In the dynamic and multifaceted realm of construction, where myriad factors influence project outcomes, a structured approach to quality management is indispensable. This introduction provides an overview of quality management systems (QMS) in construction projects. The construction industry is both massive & dangerous, encompassing a wide variety of tasks, from initial conceptualization to final dismantling. It is vital to the wealth-generating processes of economy. It encompasses a systematic approach to quality assurance and quality control, aiming to identify, mitigate, and prevent defects or deficiencies throughout the project lifecycle. QMS empowers construction stakeholders to consistently deliver projects that meet the highest standards of safety, performance, and durability.
