QA/QC (Checklists) Software

Quality is a significant problem in construction. According to a Zurich Services Corporation 2008 report, there were approximately 15,000 new construction defect claims in 2007, costing between $3 and $4 billion to settle. On a specific project, delivering to the level of quality specified by the contract can be the difference between profit and loss.

Today, unfortunately, most construction companies lack the ability to gather, analyze and share critical quality information in a standard way. Vela Systems‘ QA/QC software provides companies the tools and content they need to create an enterprise quality system.

In the field, Vela replaces paper-based QA/QC processes with easy-to-configure electronic checklists and automated project-level reporting. At the company level, executives can track QA/QC compliance data for one or multiple projects in executive dashboards. Lastly, Vela offers content libraries as a starting point for developing your enterprise quality program.

QA/QC Benefits

  • Implement and enforce an enterprise quality program.
  • Immediately gather QA/QC information from projects to proactively identify trends early and reduce both jobsite and corporate risks.
  • Monitor internal compliance with your QA/QC program - are the right inspections being conducted at the right time and frequency?
  • Understand both subcontractor and self-performed quality performance to better manage post-project evaluations and future bid processes.
  • Standardize your QA/QC materials by leveraging content libraries of over 200 checklists, organized by MasterFormat™.

QA/QC Capabilities

  • Create and manage standardized libraries of QA/QC checklists and assign them to users and projects.
  • Use Vela Mobile to complete checklists in the field, where the work gets done.
  • Add digital photos then mark them up for specific observations in the field.
  • Access project plans, contract documents and QA/QC guidance materials in the field using Vela's Library.
  • Automatically aggregate QA/QC information across QA/QC managers, superintendents, and other field personnel for centralized reporting.

Vela Systems software enabled us to go beyond the limitations of conventional paper-based processes and achieve greater time savings and quality control.
