What is a Task?

Tasks are phases of work that you quality control. Look at your production schedule for phases of work that should be quality controlled. In general quality-controlled tasks are triggered when the work:

• Requires quality controls such as inspections
• Has trades, work crews, or disciplines unique to that task
• Is a critical path activity on the schedule
• Is monitored by a QC Specialist or specialty inspection personnel

When a task is quality controlled, someone verifies that the completed work complies with the specifications for the task. That is where inspection checklists come in … use them to keep a record of the inspection.
