QLF Virtual Series: Risk-Based Assessment and In-Line Assessment Methodologies

June 18, 1-2 p.m. Eastern

Quality professionals utilize both Risk-Based and In-Line Assessment (ILA) methodologies to help their organizations allocate resources toward understanding and making improved risk-informed decisions. Risk-based methodology uses a series of screening questions and risk ranking criteria to assess risk. One of the primary methods is ILA, an insight Quality Assurance methodology performed in parallel with a prime contractor’s manufacturing, assembly and testing processes to ensure requirement compliance and contractor performance.

Join Brad Johnson, Quality Engineer Subject Matter Expert for Bastion Technologies at Marshall Space Flight Center, who will explore the utilization of Risk-Based and ILA methodologies.
