QEMS. ANAS quality evaluation management system

摘要

The ANAS Quality Evaluation Management System (QEMS) is an innovative tool that enables the collection, the analysis and the evaluation of all the information related to road pavement for new construction projects and for maintenance of existing roads. The system provides on-time quality reports which include information about the quality of the activities involved in road construction and maintenance, and data about the performances of the Key Suppliers (KS). Based on this, with the QEMS you can check the quality performance of each activity performed by KS. In addition, the QEMS may be used by each KS, who is allowed accessing only to its own results. This interactive tool is proposed as a support to enhance the quality of road construction by providing a synthetic and on-time analysis of performances, all the results are showed with different colors on geographical maps in order to facilitate the user to read them. In the QEMS, each project is divided into more audit areas each characterized by a unique pavement design. Then, in each Audit Area, the activities of each KS (e.g., laying, compaction), are audited acquiring selected information (laboratory test data, on site audit data, management quality audit data), defined as parameters; each parameter is evaluated according to defined evaluation criteria based on weights, optimal values and acceptable values. Within the same audit area all the activities are organized into a hierarchical structure, called Activity Tree. The QEMS is completely configurable and you can simulate more scenarios with various weight factors in order to get reports with different evaluation criteria.
