Quality assurance and quality control

In the construction industry, maintaining equipment and reviewing quality of work can be simple but effective way to accomplish an exceptional final result. There are a variety of quality control measures your business can implement to help improve risk management. Zurich’s quality management program identifies cost-effective prevention measures and best-practice techniques designed to help reduce losses associated with construction-defect claims.

Quality assurance and quality control

Zurich has developed a quality management program that helps to ensure that the design and construction of a project meets the quality requirements established by the owner. Our program consists of both consultative services and best practice tools, which are designed to help develop or enhance existing quality management programs.

Pre-construction

Planning for design and construction risks prior to mobilization is one of the more complicated issues contractors face, but also one of the most important steps in quality assurance and control. Adequately mitigating the risks associated with contract language and ensuring that you have the appropriate coverage are areas where Zurich professionals can assist you.

• Contractual-risk-transfer best practices: We address the risks associated with contract language and help ensure that your general liability coverage is appropriate for your business.
• Understanding and managing professional liability risks: Our experienced risk management professionals offer a consultative approach to mitigating these types of risks.
• Contract management and education: We provide thought leadership, training and consultation on contract development and administration, as well as regulatory developments.

An effective approach to quality assurance and quality control can give every project a strong foundation for customer satisfaction and minimizes the potential for construction-defect litigation later.

Zurich can help you maximize the time you spend building and minimize time spent on rework.
