QA/QC

Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) are essential components of any construction project, especially in large-scale infrastructure. Ensuring that materials, processes, and outputs meet specified standards is crucial for compliance, safety, and project success. The QA/QC module in TactCPM provides comprehensive tools for managing quality - from recipe management to digital forms and automated and digital QAQC reporting.

Key Features

  1. Recipe Management:
    • Digital Repository of Mix Recipes: The system maintains a centralized, digital repository (enhancement)of approved mix recipes for concrete, asphalt, and other construction materials. Each recipe includes detailed information on material proportions, water-cement ratios, admixtures, and other specifications.
    • Custom Recipe Creation and Modification: Users can create custom mix recipes tailored to specific project requirements, environmental conditions, or regulatory standards. The system allows easy modification of existing recipes and tracks changes for quality control and auditing purposes.
    • Automatic Recipe Compliance Checks: The solution automatically checks if the batch production adheres to the predefined mix recipes, ensuring compliance with project specifications and minimizing the risk of quality issues.
  1. Digital QA/QC Forms:
    • Pre-Configured and Customizable Forms:TactCPM extends a library of pre-configured digital forms for various QA/QC activities, such as material inspection, concrete pouring checks, compaction tests, slump tests and more. Users can also create custom forms to suit specific project needs.
    • Automated Data Collection and Entry: Digital forms are designed for easy data entry, including dropdowns, checkboxes, and validation rules, ensuring that all required information is captured accurately. This reduces manual errors and ensures consistent data entry.
  1. Integrated QA/QC Reporting:
    • Comprehensive QA/QC Reports: The system generates comprehensive reports covering various QA/QC aspects, including material test results, site inspection reports, non-conformance reports (NCRs), corrective action reports (CARs), and quality audit reports. These reports provide detailed insights into project quality performance.
    • Real-Time Data Analytics and Dashboards: Offers real-time analytics and dashboards to monitor QA/QC activities, track key performance indicators (KPIs), identify quality trends, and highlight potential areas of concern. This helps in proactive quality management.
    • Automated Compliance and Regulatory Reports: Automatically generates reports required by regulatory bodies like NHAI and RVNL, ensuring compliance with quality standards and facilitating smoother project approvals and audits.
  1. Quality Inspection and Test Management:
    • Integrated Material Testing and Sampling: The solution integrates with material testing labs and sampling processes to track test results for concrete, aggregates, asphalt, soil, and other materials. This ensures that all materials meet the required quality standards before use.
    • Scheduled and Ad-Hoc Inspections: Supports both scheduled and ad-hoc inspections for different stages of construction, such as pre-pour, post-pour, curing, and compaction. Inspections can be assigned to specific personnel and tracked for completion.(Enhancement)
    • Approval Workflows: Approval workflows ensure that only authorized personnel can approve test results and certificates.
  1. QC Documentation:
    • Centralized Document Management System:TactCPM maintains a centralized repository for all QA/QC documents, including inspection reports, test certificates, NCRs, CARs, and audit reports. This ensures easy access to critical documents and supports regulatory compliance.
    • Automated Version Control and Archiving: Supports automated version control and archiving of quality documents, ensuring that the latest versions are always available and outdated documents are securely archived.
