PURPOSE: This Construction Quality Management Course for contractors is being presented as a result of partnering efforts with the Associated Builders and Contractors, Associated General Contractors, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC). The purpose of this course is to familiarize contractor personnel with USACE and NAVFAC construction quality management concepts and procedures.
The mutual goal of the Contractor and the Government is to achieve a quality product, executed safely, on time, and within budget. Quality management succeeds through a partnership between the Contractor and the Government. The Contractor is responsible for providing a Quality Control (QC) Personnel that meets the required experience and to perform daily QC of the work, while the Government through Quality Assurance (QA) ensures that the Contractor’s Quality Control program is working effectively.
Although students who pass the CQM-C class receive a certificate, they must also meet contractual experience and education requirements to be a designated CQC System Manager on a project. It is recommended that Contractors review contract specifications for applicable experience requirements.
