    Feb 12 2024

    Quality Assurance (QA), Quality Control (QC) and commissioning are three crucial steps in the construction process. Often these steps are seen by only a few people involved in a project, so we are shedding some light on what they are, how they work, and why they are so important.

    We are joined by Andrew Bleackley from Wood Group, to walk us through the basics of QA, QC, and Commissioning.
