Would you like to improve your organisation's quality management?
Do you need to prepare for an external quality audit such as TickIT?
If so, Software Quality Consultancy may help you succeed, more quickly and more surely. This site explains how.
To achieve these aims, you will need to know what Quality Management is about - its principles, its methods, and standards such as ISO 9000; how software projects work, and how they can go wrong; and how Quality Management applies to software.
You may also benefit by learning from other people's experience as to what approaches have succeeded for them. Finally, you will need to know how to put all this together, so as to create the right quality system for your business.
Consultancy provides the knowledge and skills that you may not have in-house. It does so through advice, training, audit and other services. It saves you time and avoids false starts.
It helps you build your Quality System now; it also gives your people the expertise they will need to manage, maintain and develop the system in the future.
As an outsider, the consultant can provide a fresh view on problems that have seemed stubborn.
Consultancy is flexible. You can choose a package of services to suit your needs - using as much, or as little, as you require.
It is available on tap. You can work at the pace that best fits the resources and time you are able to put into the project.
I am a consultant, offering services to UK and European software organisations. These include small-to-medium businesses, departments of engineering companies and projects in large, diversified corporations.
