Summary/Abstract |
A closed loop feedback system for ensuring the quality of the Army equipment exists. Notwithstanding this, a number of Army equipment show a high failure rate at crucial times and are, therefore, a matter of great concern. These failed equipment have resulted in a number of avoidable casualties as well as restricted operational planning by tactical commanders in the field due to the non-availability of equipment for deployment, which results from their low reliability or high rates of failure. This article examines how this system has been exploited in terms of analysing the feedback from the field Army and using the outcomes of these analyses for incorporating improvements in General Staff Qualitative Requirements (GSQRs), Acceptance Test Procedures (ATPs), Quality Assurance Plans (QAPs), etc., all to ensure that a better quality product is procured. Based on the analysis, it also provides certain recommendations to improve the existing system.

Summary/Abstract |
This article gives an overview of the evolution of Quality Assurance (QA) in army procurements as also various shortcomings in the contemporary principles and practices that cause delays in procurements and their possible solutions. The list of shortcomings is not exhaustive; however, due care has been taken to bring out the most important ones which need immediate attention. The causal factors of these shortcomings have been analysed and recommendations to overcome them have also been listed to make the QA practice more efficient and minimize delays due to QA.
Few people have the wisdom to prefer the criticism that would do them good, to the praise that deceives them.
