Overall, on project work design quality in current activities promotes quality in future activities. Design, as the initial process in highway projects, has a great deal of potential to influence quality in succeeding processes. As highway design projects progress, quality has the potential to accumulate, build momentum, and become amplified. Quality designs induce better construction at predictable costs and lower risks. Early investments in design quality enhance overall project quality.
Satisfied requirements are the benefits of quality.
Gauging satisfaction assesses quality. The purpose of measurements is to assess progress in satisfying requirements. Measurements taken while design is progressing are predictors of design quality and those taken during construction are indicators. The measurements revealed by this research are summarized below. The Project Management Institute advises that earned value analyses are the most commonly used methods of evaluating project performance.
