11. 10 SoMD PMI Training What is Quality?  Quality is defined as "the totality of characteristics of an entity that bear on its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs." (© PMBOK Third Edition)  Quality is “the degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfill requirements.” (© PMBOK DRAFT Fourth Edition)  Degree to which a set of inherent characteristic fulfills requirements. (© ISO 9000)  A subjective term for which each person has his or her own definition. In technical usage, quality can have two meanings: (© American Society for Quality) 1.The characteristics of a product or service that bear on its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs. 2.A product or service free of deficiencies.  "Products and services that meet or exceed customers' expectations" That expectation has two dimensions: "must-be quality" and "attractive quality “ (Kano and others)

14. 13 SoMD PMI Training Quality Management Processes PMBoK  Project Quality Management implements the quality management system by using policies, procedures, and the following processes: 1.Quality Planning Identifying relevant quality standards and how to apply them 2.Perform Quality Assurance Evaluating overall project performance on a regular basis 3.Perform Quality Control Monitoring specific project results for compliance with standards Identifying ways to eliminate causes of unsatisfactory results Quality Planning Perform Quality Control Perform Quality Assurance

15. 14 SoMD PMI Training Quality Management Processes  Project Quality Management focuses on ensuring two things: 1.The quality of project management process 2.The quality of the products created during the project.  Quality Assurance activities monitor and verify that the processes used to manage and create the deliverables are followed and are effective.  Quality Control activities monitor and verify that project deliverables meet defined quality standards.  Perform Quality Control process monitors the output of projects and measures whether the results of a project meet customer requirements. Quality Planning Perform Quality Control Perform Quality Assurance

17. 16 SoMD PMI Training Quality Management Plan  The Quality Management Plan defines the acceptable level of quality, which is typically defined by the customer, and describes how the project will ensure this level of quality in its deliverables and work processes. Quality management activities ensure that: –Products are built to meet agreed- upon standards and requirements –Work processes are performed efficiently and as documented –Non-conformances found are identified and appropriate corrective action is taken  Quality Management plans apply to project deliverables and project work processes.

18. 17 SoMD PMI Training Quality Management Plan  Quality Management Plan Components –Quality objectives –Key project deliverables and processes to be reviewed for satisfactory quality level –Quality standards –Quality Assurance and Control activities –Quality roles and responsibilities –Quality tools –Plan for reporting quality control and assurance problems  Who is involved –Project Manager –Project Team –Customer –Project Sponsor

20. 19 SoMD PMI Training Quality Control Plan  QCP must be consistent with the QMP. It is to be used by the technical manager to manage technical quality aspects throughout product development. QCP should be developed as the first order of business upon project/product initiation.  The purpose of the QCP is to ensure: –Delivery of quality products meeting the agreed ‑ upon requirements from the QMP and is on schedule, and within budget; –Compliance with policies and technical criteria; –Clear lines of accountability during production; –Independent technical review performed consistent with these guidelines.

23. 22 SoMD PMI Training Quality Control Plan and Measurement  Measurement should be able to: –spot trends in performance. –compare alternatives. –predict performance.  Measurement should be stated in either quantitative or qualitative terms  Performance should be clearly defined in a measurable entity (quantifiable) –Exceptional = 4 –Very good = 3 –Satisfactory = 2 –Marginal = 1 –Unsatisfactory = 0  Effective measurement allow for actionable responses if the performance is unacceptable Communications  There is little value in a measurement which identifies nonperformance if nothing can or will be done to remedy it.

24. 23 SoMD PMI Training What do you measure in the QCP?  Product Delivery –Performance Satisfaction Surveys –Schedule –Cost –Specification Compliance –Defects –Accurate and Timely Communications  Service Delivery –Performance Requirements Deliverable –Schedule –Cost –Satisfaction Surveys –Quality Issue Report –Self-Assessment Performance
