Overview

According to a UK government survey, about 70% of quality issues in the construction industry arise from human error, highlighting the importance of effective training and clear procedures. Additionally, poor quality management results in annual costs of around £7 billion for the industry. Quality control and inspections play a significant role in making sure projects meet regulatory standards and client expectations.

By concentrating on quality, construction businesses can improve safety, reduce costs, and achieve better outcomes for their clients. Paying attention to these aspects can make a significant difference in the overall success of a project.

This course looks at the key legal responsibilities involved in managing quality control within an entire construction project and beyond. Packed with video content featuring industry experts, it delves into what’s involved in quality control, the importance of inspections and the implications of not following regulations.
