With public money being spent on development works, every Panchayat and Municipality is duty bound to ensure that very rigorous quality control standards are not bypassed in their attempt to hastily get it completed. Every project has to be a very lasting one. A successful project is one which can achieve a balance between cost, time, quality and meets the agreed goals of the project. This can only be achieved with transparency, accountability and zero tolerance to corruption. To ensure that every project is properly and meticulously executed, we need to ensure quality control by persons well equipped to technically and administratively monitor and ascertain strict compliance of established standards. Quality is never an accident, it is always the result of forward planning and research, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution. It represents the wise choice of many alternatives. Great projects require the highest quality output at every stage. Quality is a journey which has to be ensured from the foundation stone till the very completion of any project.
