The difference between development management and quality management lies within the specific scope and the goal of each job function.
Development management focus on the development activities and the deliverables in a project such as Concept/Initiate, Plan, Develop, Validate, Release/completion. It's goal is to complete all these stages/phases of the project within the project's budget and schedule.
While quality management focus on the QUALITY and RELIABILITY of the product, project's execution and its outcome, documentations (quality records), adherence to procedures and policies, sustaining quality and its continuous improvement. Quality management can be applied during a new product development, projects, production, and operations. It's goal is to ensure that the project and its outcome adheres to the standards, specifications that satifies and delight the customer's expectations and mostly, to ensure that such state is maintained during the product's life cycle.
Quality Management is the assembly and management of all activities aimed at the production of quality by organizations of various kinds. In the present case this implies the introduction and proper running of a "Quality System" in laboratories. A statement of objectives and policy to produce quality should be made for the organization or department concerned (by the institute's directorate). This statement also identifies the internal organization and responsibilities for the effective operation of the Quality System.
