By quality control, we mean the system of upholding, adhering to, and maintaining specific standards for products and services through tests, upgradation, and assessment. This is applicable to almost all industries and sectors.
Quality Control is often indicated by its abbreviation- QC. It means the ways and means through which any business/service provider/brand/entity/individual strives to make sure that the quality of the product/solution/service is maintained and enhanced, as per guiding standards, benchmarks, and regulations. This is a quest for perfection and to ensure the best possible quality to customers/users. This is done through benchmarking standards for materials/services, testing, examination, analysis, compliance, and training. There have to be well-defined and established quality control protocols as well.
Quality control is important in the real estate sector for several reasons. Firstly, it is used for ascertaining, improving, and maintaining the quality of materials for construction and development. Secondly, it means testing these materials in order to ensure that they comply with contemporary regulations and benchmarks. Thirdly, they encompass every stage of the construction procedure, making sure that customers get the best-possible construction quality and durability for their real estate units/assets.
Along with construction quality (as per regulations and quality benchmarks), quality control may also extend to construction techniques, green building techniques, layouts, designs, amenities, engineering, service, interiors, and more. In the real estate industry, quality control for the final product is the responsibility of the real estate developer/builder/company, along with the manufacturers and suppliers of raw materials and labor.
