Quality Assurance Protocol
Industry Benchmarked Frameworks
At The DraftRack, we implement a comprehensive Multi-Stage Review Process that serves as the cornerstone of our quality management system. This rigorous protocol ensures every deliverable undergoes systematic verification at critical checkpoints throughout the project lifecycle.
Our quality assurance framework includes:
- Drawing Accuracy Validation: Skilled detailers meticulously review dimensional information and fabrication details using advanced 3D modelling verification to eliminate potential fabrication errors and ensure perfect field fit.
- Standards Compliance Confirmation: All drawings and specifications are validated against applicable industry codes including AISC, NISD, and project-specific standards to guarantee regulatory compliance.
- Client-Specific Requirements Verification: Deliverables are reviewed against unique client specifications, preferred practices, and established quality protocols to ensure seamless integration with client workflows.
- Final Quality Certification: Senior project managers conduct comprehensive reviews validating completeness, accuracy, and professional presentation of all project documentation.
This systematic approach creates multiple layers of quality control with defined pass/fail criteria and mandatory correction loops. No deliverable advances to the next phase until all quality requirements are satisfied, ensuring error-free documentation that meets the highest professional standards and protects our clients’ project investments.
