Elements that are required for regulatory compliance can be used as powerful resources to achieve quality improvement. One such approach, using the output from a Good Laboratory Practice quality assurance program, is described and has produced marked improvements in the conduct and reporting of toxicology studies. The cost effectiveness of quality assurance programs under such circumstances is discussed.

This paper reports the results of a study which investigated the impact of quality assurance on 13 suppliers to the nuclear industry. The purpose of the study was to determine the benefits and problems of applying quality assurance in the supply of high risk plant items and material for nuclear installations. The paper discusses the problems facing the industry including: multiple audits and inspections, the irritation with having to contend with two quality system standards (namely BS 5750 and BS 5882) and the cost effectiveness of the more stringent quality system and quality control surveillance requirements imposed by the nuclear industry. It is also pointed out that companies supplying non-nuclear industrial customers were dissatisfied with the qualifications, experience and professional competence of some auditors and many inspectors.
