4. Quality Plan summary

   The Quality Plan contains the two general quality processes: quality control and quality assurance. Quality control activities ensure the deliverables produced by the project meet client expectations. An example of a quality control activity is an inspection of each component that will be used to complete a final deliverable. Quality assurance activities ensure that the processes used to create the deliverables are of high quality. An example of a quality assurance technique is a checklist that contains all of the steps that a deliverable must complete before it reaches final acceptance.

6. The following is a list of the most common policies/processes for disaster strategy:- Local mirrors of systems and/or data and use of disk protection technology such as RAID Surge protectors — to minimize the effect of power surges on delicate electronic equipment Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and/or backup generator to keep systems going in the event of a power failure Fire preventions — alarms, fire extinguishers Anti-virus software and other security measures Backups made to tape and sent off-site at regular intervals (preferably daily) Backups made to disk on-site and automatically copied to off-site disk, or made directly to off-site disk Replication of data to an off-site location, which overcomes the need to restore the data (only the systems then need to be restored or synced). This generally makes use of storage area network (SAN) technology High availability systems which keep both the data and system replicated off-site, enabling continuous access to systems and data
