NATO Requirements for an Industrial Quality Control System

Abstract

Modern industry is characterized by advancing technology and correspondingly increasing complexity and is subject to regulatory requirements, all of which can combine to impact costs. Such modern quality control is based on a few basic concepts. Contractors should be prepared, not only to deliver materiel and services on schedule at an agreed price, but in addition, to substantiate by objective evidence, that they have maintained control over the design, development and manufacturing operations and have performed inspection which demonstrates the acceptability of materiel and services.
