Description

In this episode of GovCon Unscripted, Chelsea welcomes Renee and Greg Glendenning of Quality Control University, construction educators and QC experts with more than 30 years in the federal contracting industry.

They break down what QC actually requires on federal construction projects, the most common mistakes that cost contractors time and money, and what inspectors are really looking for during site visits.

On this episode, we discuss:

  • What QC really requires on federal construction projects
  • Why most contractors fail before they even step on site
  • QC pitfalls that cause delays, rework, or non-compliance
  • What federal inspectors check beyond the paperwork
  • Why documentation determines whether QC passes or fails
  • How proper training protects contractors from costly mistakes
