PPQA Vs. VER

PPQA provides staff and management with objective insight into the performance and compliance of the defined process. E.g. Audits look into process adherence and process performance.

Verification ensures that the selected work products meet their specified requirements. E.g. Peer review of SRS ensures that all the details captured thru BRS are appropriately addressed in the requirement specs.

These two process areas address the same work product from different perspectives - PPQA from process perspective, and VER from the technical aspect.
