Quality


At Lariat, we believe the responsibility for quality belongs to everyone. For Lariat, quality is customer-oriented, not product-oriented -- emphasizing continuous assessment, improvement, and innovation. Our Quality Assurance (QA)/Quality Control (QC) philosophy emphasizes quality designed and built into our processes, rather than just quality inspected into our products and services. As a result, we stress a proactive and error-preventive approach, identifying and mitigating potential problems early, rather than solving larger problems later. Not only are we committed to quality at all stages of the project life cycle, but also to quality at all stages of interface among contractor personnel, client management and staff, and end users. Lariat uses a systematic approach, standardized, repeatable processes and industry best-practices to ensure the quality of our deliverables and services. Our quality systems meet the stringent requirements of both our commercial and government clients.
