Activities such as designing fashion, engineering vehicles and preparing food are acts of defining quality. Quality control is the detection and prevention of defects in products, services and experiences. In this context, quality is often defined as "conformance to requirements." As such, quality control isn't concerned quality in the eyes of customers. As long as things match requirements, they pass.| Quality vs Quality Control | ||
