In order to maintain quality workmanship, the company has a policy whereby all drawings and pertaining information is first inspected thoroughly by the technical team leader. This is an effective internal quality management system which ensures that all information regarding a project does indeed comply with the local municipal requirements, and also the National Building Regulations.
