Test Strategy & V&V Governance

When quality needs to be managed more effectively from the start.

The situation

Quality is not created in test.

Quality is not created in test. It is created through clear objectives, clean accountabilities, effective quality gates and solid decision bases across the entire development process.

I help companies build or evolve a test and V&V governance that makes quality visible earlier, risks manageable and release decisions more confident.
