9/15/2008: Military News Release: Iraq: QA/QC Teams In Charge of
Reconstruction Projects:

BAGHDAD, Iraq - There are never more than a handful of them in one
area at a time; they need to rely on other Soldiers to accomplish
their mission; and if their job is done right, you will see it and
never know. In fact, all Multi-National Division - Baghdad-funded
reconstruction projects in Sadr City cannot be completed without their
agreement.

They are Quality Assurance/Quality Control engineers who work for
Multi-National Division - Baghdad.

There are more than 200 MND-B-funded reconstruction and refurbishment
projects alone in the section of Sadr City known as Operating
Environment Gold. The projects have a list of tasks, known as a scope
of work, which must be completed.

The QA/QC team is charged with checking the quality of more than 120
projects per week that are being spearheaded by Iraqi contractors and
accomplished by the Iraqi workers they hire.
