Quality Assurance Plan
Upon Notification of Award, Team Telesis will coordinate and conduct a project kick-off meeting within 5 days post award. At the project initial kick-off meeting, Team Telesis’s Program Manager (PM) will deliver a Quality Control Plan (QCP), including Project Management Plan (PMP), performance metrics and a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) that guide the day-to-day management of the program and establish the management and technical baselines for the overall effort.
Project Management: The Project Manager (PM) will detail the PMP project objectives and scope, WBS, deliverables, resource assignments, performance metrics, communications, processes, procedures, and any additional information needed for the effective management of the project. For deliverables without a specific periodicity or well-defined level of effort, the PMP will state the methodology for determining delivery, review and acceptance milestones. Tasks will be tracked using the PMP and a Master Integrated Schedule to permit early identification and mitigation of quality, cost or schedule risks, and maintain compliance with PMI® principles. Project status, accomplishments, risk and issues (including impact assessment), and fiscal status will be summarized in the monthly progress report. We will effectively manage the resources as to take burden off of government personnel.
Project Administration Support: Team Telesis has the experience in large scale project administration, from a Corporate Enterprise perspective, to tackle all aspects to project submissions. Team Telesis will apply PMI® principles and best business practices to identify the risk, assess the risk (likelihood and impact), and develop a proposed approach to avoid, accept, transfer or mitigate the risk. The PM will work with the designated SeaPort Point of Contact (POC) to validate and manage changes to the scope, expectations or execution of projects, schedules, and cost reports. Changes within the scope of the Performance Work Statement (PWS) will be coordinated and agreed to in writing by Team Telesis’s PM and SeaPort POC. Working in conjunction with on-site personnel, the Team Telesis will increase communication amongst directorates to ease in tackling facility issues, access requests, and any other support services that may arise.
Performance Measurement: As part of the In Process Reviews (IPRs), Team Telesis will deliver reports and other required documents to capture accomplishments, fiscal status, performance effectiveness, and results of analytical efforts. Without fail, the Team Telesis will easily assign effective measurements, and streamline a monthly reporting process.
Business Process Improvement: Standardization and streamlining of business processes embeds critical, tacit knowledge in the process. By documenting the “AS-IS” and the “TO-BE” process, our Business Process Re-Engineer (BPR) experts will be able to identify optimal solutions for reengineering efforts. In addition to identifying opportunities for process improvements, Team Telesis will leverage best practices from external sources, and utilize this logic in the standardization of best practices so that the knowledge becomes embedded in the process.
Quality Assurance: Team Telesis’s reputation rests in part in the quality of our deliverables. Team Telesis takes the more assertive stance that quality starts with requirements elicitation and management, and then integrates throughout the lifecycle of the deliverable.
Team Telesis uses the latest Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (the PMBOK® Guide) as its standard for Project Management along with other best practice resources. Our oversight and Project Management responsibilities start upon contact award notification; aligning effective resources in support of requirements one day one. Team Telesis will assure and demonstrate nothing less than a superior delivery of services using our proven quality management methodologies.
