activities that are undertaken to ensure that a project uses the processes needed to meet quality requirements. Quality control entails monitoring specific

project results to determine whether they meet relevant quality standards, which have been defined with the project scope.

For example, in IT projects, factors that can negatively affect the likelihood of success may include advances in technology during the project's execution,

infrastructure changes that impact security and data management, or the risks involved in implementing new technology for the first time. There are various

quality control techniques to ensure the project achieves successful outcomes.
