Brianna has a masters of education in educational leadership, a DBA business management, and a BS in animal science.
Meet Molly. Molly just found out that she will be the new leader for an upcoming project. Because this is her first project, she decides to do some research on how to effectively lead a project. The first place she starts is by determining the most important aspects of the project; essentially, she is determining which standards are necessary in order to successfully complete the project. Molly learns that she needs to identify what standards are relevant to the project and how she and her team will meet them. This is known as quality planning and is the focus of this lesson.
Quality planning is the task of determining what factors are important to a project and figuring out how to meet those factors. Such factors often include the resources that will be used, the steps needed to complete the project and any other specifications. So for Molly, this means she needs to plan what resources the project will need, determine the cost of those resources, plan a timeline for completing the project, outline the steps she and her team will take, and she will need to assign the tasks and responsibilities to each person.
Now that Molly knows what quality planning is, the next step is to learn about the process. Let's take a look at some of the common steps.
Now let's take a look at the tools a company can use when implementing quality planning.
Quality planning is the task of determining what factors are important to a project and figuring out how to meet those factors. Some common steps in the process include knowing responsibilities, outlining documents, understanding procedures, designing, monitoring and wrapping up. Some important tools to help successfully complete a project are charts and diagrams, benchmarking and check sheets.
