The aim of the DQI systems was to ensure that the M4I's indicators of construction process were balanced by an assessment of the building as a product. [2] The Science Policy Research Unit at the University of Sussex was commissioned to develop the indicator tool, which was launched as an online resource on 1 October 2003. [ 3 ]
The PMI standard is more than 450 pages in length and describes processes, inputs, outputs and associated tools and techniques. [9] Both organizations use the concept of process as an integral part of project management. ISO and PMI segregate project processes into five process groups with some minor variances in labeling.

ISO 2848:1984, published by International Organization for Standardization, is an ISO standard used by the construction industry. [1]Adherence to the standard means that major dimensions such as grid lines on drawings, distances between wall centres or surfaces, widths of shelves and kitchen components are multiples of the basic module.
The process capability index, or process capability ratio, is a statistical measure of process capability: the ability of an engineering process to produce an output within specification limits. [1] The concept of process capability only holds meaning for processes that are in a state of statistical control. This means it cannot account for ...
Statistical process control is appropriate to support any repetitive process, and has been implemented in many settings where for example ISO 9000 quality management systems are used, including financial auditing and accounting, IT operations, health care processes, and clerical processes such as loan arrangement and administration, customer ...
Material efficiency is a description or metric ((Mp) (the ratio of material used to the supplied material)) which refers to decreasing the amount of a particular material needed to produce a specific product. [1] Making a usable item out of thinner stock than a prior version increases the material efficiency of the manufacturing process.
The ISO standards ISO 9000, a family of standards for quality management systems, and the ISO 10006:2003, for Quality management systems and guidelines for quality management in projects. ISO 21500:2012 – Guidance on project management. This is the first International Standard related to project management published by ISO.
The standard defines 32 criteria for full-featured EVM system compliance. As of the year 2007, a draft of ANSI/EIA-748B, a revision to the original is available from ANSI. Other countries have established similar standards. In addition to using BCWS and BCWP, implementations often use the term actual cost of work performed (ACWP) instead of AC.
