Quality Management
at Brookhaven
National Laboratory
Provides
technical assistance to ensure that departments and divisions fulfill the
BNL Quality Assurance Program. The QP&SO has changed to the Quality Management Office (QMO), as of Nov. 10,
2003. This change is a part of reorganization of the operations support
structure that was announced by the Lab Director.
This reorganization
resulted in the Performance-Based Management functions under the Office of
Management Services (OMS), the Standards-Based Management System (SBMS)
office and the former QP&SO merging into the Quality Management Office.
Vision & Mission Statements
It is the vision of
the Quality Management Office to have internal and external customers
recognize the organization as best-in-class providers of quality services.
It is the mission
of the Quality Management Office to be an
aggressive advocate for – and support the line organization in – developing
programs, activities, and services that perpetuate the integration of
Quality, Environmental, and Integrated Safety Management principles
throughout Brookhaven National Laboratory. In accomplishing this mission,
the Quality Management Office will support execution of all Laboratory
mission objectives, critical outcomes, and contract performance measures
that are assigned to the Office.
