Overview: The ISO definition states that quality control is the operational techniques and activities that are used to fulfil requirements for quality. This definition could imply that any activity whether serving the improvement, control, management or assurance of quality could be a quality control activity. Quality control is a process for maintaining standards and not for creating them. Standards are maintained through a process of selection, measurement and correction of work, so that only those products or services which emerge from the process meet the standards. Along this there is a process of control which has been discussed in the article. Quality Control is also a term used as a name of a department. In most cases Quality Control Departments perform inspection and test activities and the name derives from the authority that such departments have been given. They sort good products from bad products and authorize the release of the good products. Thus It is essential that Control of quality, can be accomplished. For this various steps have been discussed in general.
