Part 3 (3 Pages)
As a project manager, in addition to satisfying project quality requirements, you also must abide by laws, standards, and business regulations. Depending on the project, the regulations and laws that need to be in compliance can be related to labor, technology, safety, and so on. If the project is large enough, the project manager could assure compliance by having several staff assigned to manage elements of the project. Sometimes, a quality manager is the central coordinator who ensures much of the corporate interests are protected and that each project incorporates the requisite mandates.
