Any software company, large or small, producing software products on any platform.
Many testing methodologies promise long-term results with a philosophical approach to Quality Assurance implementation. The Quality Concept provides short-term results using an easy to implement, low-overhead formula. QCM allows you to customize steps to meet your specific needs in software delivery, greatly improving the quality of your product/s while building the foundation for long-term quality practices.
Each facet of QCM relies on the inherent skills of your existing personnel, e.g. Product Managers need to possess the skills necessary for their profession. Every company is unique, and Quality Concept, QC Co. understands that. By basing the methodology around each company's organizational structure, management can decide which job description fits the specific tasks needed to be performed to implement each phase of the simple QCM process. This innovative approach minimizes overhead while maximizing company-wide acceptance.
The training can last from two to four weeks depending on the needs and resources of the company as well as the product lines being supported.
Years of research have shown that inconsistent skill sets produce labor-intensive, chaotic results. Therefore, each Quality Concept Consultant is trained in QCM, a proven methodology catering to your specific requirements. Further, when you retain a Quality Concept Consultant you hire the resources and knowledge base of the entire company. A company focused specifically on Quality Assurance and Quality Control.
Why hire an ambiguous recruiting company when you can engage dedicated cutting edge technologists?
Often testing needs are cyclical. While full-time staffing is always recommended to provide a strong foundation for continuous product support, ramping up for major product releases routinely requires temporary supplemental staffing. Quality Concept provides trained, experienced, affordable consultants when you need them, thus reducing total overhead costs associated with permanent employees.

Quality Concept works with your team to identify high-risk, component integration elements as well as methods of up-front test execution needed to ensure that product integration issues are addressed before they become errors.
Studies report that 40% to 70% of the development cycle (including resource allocation) is devoted to error detection and removal. Quality Concept works with your team to identify and fix the failing processes and procedures responsible for allowing defects to migrate into the final stages of development. Thereby dramatically reducing costs by eliminating the defects at the conceptual stage.
