SUMMARY  \nThis document was prepared to assist NEIWPCC staff in understanding the process for completing quality assurance field assessments on active projects that have NEIWPCC quality assurance project plans (QAPPs) . All NEIWPCC QAPPs have language in them that authorizes NEIWPCC staff to conduct assessments to determine conformance and compliance with the plan as documented in the QAPP.  \nII. DEFINITIONS  \n\n| QMP | Quality management plan. Overarching document that describes NEIWPCC’s quality program. |\n| --- | --- |\n| QAPP | Quality assurance project plan (including all associated appendices, checklists, and forms) |\n| Unique identifier | Alphanumeric label assigned to each QAPP submitted for NEIWPCC review and approval |\n| NEIWPCC project manager (PM) | NEIWPCC staff person responsible for oversight of project in need of an approved QAPP |\n| QAPP Tracker | Database used to track information and status of QAPP review and approval |\n| QAPM | Quality assurance program manager (currently Emily Bialowas) is the pointof-contact for all quality assurance activities |\n| Designee | Quality assurance program manager designee. An appropriately trained and certified staff person selected by the QAPM to review and approve a particular QAPP |\n| Assessors | The individual or team conducting the QA field assessment. This can be the project manager on a project they oversee or the QAPM or one of their designees. Multiple NEIWPCC staff can participate in an assessment as assessors. |\n| Project team | The individual or group of individuals responsible for implementing a given project. This may include the project manager for those projects directly implemented by NEIWPCC staff. |\n\nIII. PROCEDURE  \nThe primary objective of a quality assurance field assessment is to evaluate whether a project is being conducted in accordance with its approved QAPP and, if it is not, to take corrective actions to ensure that the data collected in the project are of sufficient quality to meet the stated objectives. In addition, field assessments allow an opportunity for staff in oversight positions to observe a project’s implementation and better understand future opportunities for related projects. Field assessments are also an excellent avenue to collect pictures and videos of the work that NEIWPCC funds and completes, which can be used in communications products and internal and external presentations.  \nTwo groups of individuals are authorized t","cbCaih4nWO4m4p2U","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaih4nWO4m4p2U","pdf",615683,12,"English","# Summary\n# Definitions\n# Procedure\n## Phase 1: Planning and Preparation\n## Phase 2: Onsite Assessment\n## Phase 3: Reporting and Communication\n# Appendices\n## Appendix A: QA Field Assessment Data Sheet\n## Appendix B: Photography Guide for Field Assessments\n## Appendix C: QA Field Assessment Report Template","[{\"question\":\"What is the primary objective of a QA field assessment?\",\"answer\":\"To evaluate whether a project is conducted in accordance with its approved QAPP and, when not, to implement corrective actions to ensure data quality meets stated objectives.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is authorized to complete QA field assessments?\",\"answer\":\"Project managers, as well as the QAPM and their designees, are authorized to assess projects with appropriate NEIWPCC-approved QAPP oversight.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the three phases of a typical field assessment?\",\"answer\":\"Phase 1 covers planning and preparation, Phase 2 covers the onsite assessment, and Phase 3 covers reporting and communication.\"}]","Field-Assessment-SOP - Version 1 - Initial Version | PDF",1789161988,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":99},[100,103,107,112,117,122,127,132,137],{"id":86,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":101,"slug":102},90,"presentations",{"id":92,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":104,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":106},"Resumes",80,"resumes",{"id":108,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":109,"show_sort_weight":110,"slug":111},14,"Invoices",70,"invoices",{"id":113,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":114,"show_sort_weight":115,"slug":116},15,"Posters",60,"posters",{"id":118,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":119,"show_sort_weight":120,"slug":121},16,"Social Media",50,"social-media",{"id":123,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":126},17,"Forms",40,"forms",{"id":128,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":130,"slug":131},18,"Letters",30,"letters",{"id":133,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":134,"show_sort_weight":135,"slug":136},21,"Paper Templates",5,"papers-templates",{"id":138,"doc_module":22,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":139,"show_sort_weight":4,"slug":140},158,"General","general-158"]
