The Quality Assurance (QA) Manager ensures that the original intent of the business case is achieved in the actual implementation of the solution. This can involve leading a variety of efforts including:

  • Validating the integrity of the data integration and overall data management solution processes
  • Ensuring the ultimate data target has been accurately derived from the source data
  • Ensuring solution performance meets end user requirements or service level agreements (SLA)

The QA Manager can be a member of the IT organization but serve as a liaison to the business community.
