Quality management

Quality Management FrameworkThe University's approach to Quality Management is guided by the USQ Quality Management Policy and is designed to support continous planning and improvement. The ADRI@USQ quality management framework makes use of change processes and improvement cycles known as Approach, Deploy, Results, Improve or ADRI for short.

Each component in ADRI@USQ has tasks and activities that are required to be considered or completed.  Those tasks include:

  1. Approach - the thinking and planning
  2. Deploy - implementing and doing
  3. Results - monitoring and evaluating
  4. Improve - learning and adapting.

The ADRI@USQ planning cycle is a way of promoting the recognition that quality is not a fixed or static procedure, output or standard.  ADRI@USQ is deployed though USQ Qualiy Policy as well as through everyday customer requests.  ADRI@USQ is the result of an ongoing commitment to the values of USQ
