Which value increases the consistent use and improvement of processes to maximize business benefit and customer satisfaction?

• A. PCM
• B. PLAN
• C. PQA
• D. OT

Answer: (C)

Process Quality Assurance focuses on ensuring defined processes are actually used and continually improved. It involves auditing processes, verifying that work products meet standards, and identifying deviations and root causes, then driving corrective actions and ongoing process improvements. With these activities, process performance becomes more predictable and repeatable, leading to consistent quality, reliable delivery, and closer alignment with what customers expect. That steady adherence and systematic improvement across projects is what boosts business benefits and customer satisfaction. Planning or training alone addresses separate aspects—planning sets goals and timing, while training builds skills—without guaranteeing the ongoing enforcement and refinement of processes across the organization.
