Quality Assurance Act (Wkb): What does this mean for the quality of your construction project?
The Construction Quality Assurance Act (Wkb) was introduced to improve construction quality and strengthen the client's position. By establishing clear guidelines for what constitutes "quality," both contractors and clients know exactly what to expect. However, this legislation also brings with it necessary changes to internal business processes in the construction sector.
Prevention is better than cure
A legal dispute costs time, energy, and money. Even if you win, it often only leads to frustration. Therefore, it's essential to design processes that prevent errors and miscommunication. Clear communication and documentation are more important than ever under the Wkb. If everything is in writing, there will be no disputes about agreements made.

The impact of the Environmental Act and Wkb
Since the introduction of the Environmental Act and the Building Code (Wkb) , the paper permit is no longer the only guideline. The actual quality delivered is paramount. An independent quality assurance provider ensures that the construction project complies with all building regulations. This means a greater burden of proof for contractors; they must be able to accurately demonstrate that every part of the project, from the system walls to the ceilings , has been carried out according to the book.
