Abstract | The document presents policies, goals, and an organizational structure for the implementation of a management policy for the Quality Assurance program in the Health Effects Research Laboratory, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. Directed toward functional managers, a system for quality assurance monitoring of task quality control functions is described. General areas affecting data quality are discussed from the perspective of the manager as a reviewer of documents or plans. The quality assurance organization, consisting of a Quality Assurance Coordinator and a Quality Assurance Committee, serves in an advisory capacity to taskmasters as well as to regular functional management. Within this structure, the application of quality assurance measures is the responsibility of taskmasters or project officers. It is the responsibility of functional management to ensure that all project-oriented documents or plans have incorporated appropriate quality assurance procedures. |
