Abstract
A quality control program is developed to minimize sources of variation inherent in all analytical and technical functions. Through the use of standard operating procedures and statistical techniques, items such as determinate errors are identified and controlled. The effects of random errors are measured and used to express the degree of confidence to be placed in the analytical data and to determine when the process that generates the data is not functioning properly.This document is intended to provide the administrator or supervisor with guidelines for establishing a detailed quality control program that is consistent with his specific needs and objectives.
