Quality Assurance Program 

Markon’s Quality Assurance Program reflects our high-performance expectations to meet our customer’s needs. We value accuracy, responsiveness, timeliness, and professionalism which will make a positive impact on overall organizational functions and specific missions by meeting or exceeding performance standards and acceptable quality levels. 

Markon’s Quality Assurance Program is an outgrowth of our quality management process. Markon’s quality management process establishes and implements a quality policy throughout contract execution to identify, define, design, and build quality into the outcome. Quality planning, quality assurance, and quality control are the building blocks of our quality management process: 

• Quality Planning: the quality attributes desired in the intended outcome of the project/task, the quality standards relevant to these attributes, and a plan to satisfy them. 
• Quality Assurance: evaluating project/task performance on a regular basis to maximize confidence that the actual outcome of the program/project will indeed meet relevant quality standards and satisfy the intended customer. 
• Quality Control: monitoring specific results of project/task performance to confirm compliance with relevant quality standards, identify deviations from quality standards, and determine corrective action to eliminate root causes of issues. 

Our approach to quality is an outgrowth of Markon’s proven, repeatable process-oriented project management approach and methodology that integrates quality management and emphasizes close monitoring and management of performance. Markon incorporates proven management processes, industry best practices, and techniques to provide consistent quality to its customers.

We apply upfront planning to define quality goals and routinely monitor progress to confirm accomplishment of those goals at the contract and individual task order levels. Markon’s quality management process establishes and implements a quality policy throughout the contract by identifying, defining, designing, and building quality into the outcome.
