About Quality Management

Poor quality management and the resulting rework is eroding the profit margins of many contractors and designers alike. We at ACCI have been researching quality management on construction sites and developing quality management tools for a decade. Our work, conducted in association with our industry partners has resulted in:

• The Inspection and Test Plan structure adopted in AS 3905
• Check lists for residential construction
• Reports identifying the major quality risks in the housing sector
• Defect avoidance tools currently being piloted by our partners
• A 500 page CD ROM on trade defects in housing in its final stage of development
