Assuring Quality with Certified Coating Contractors, Applicators, and Inspectors

Those who started in the industrial painting industry back in the 1980s may remember that third-party inspectors, hired by the owner, performed all of the inspection activities and documentation. The NACE Coating Inspection Program (CIP) had just begun in the early 80s, but those getting certified did not work for a contractor. That has changed. Now contractor quality control (QC) and owner quality assurance (QA) are much more clearly defined.

Now contractor quality control (QC) and owner quality assurance (QA) are much more clearly defined. Quality management systems (QMS) based on ISO 9001 are now found in the coatings industry. SSPC’s Painting Contractor Certification Programs (PCCP), which was initiated in 1987, has taken hold in many industry segments, and individual painters are now being certified. It is finally clear that the painting contractor is responsible for front line inspections.
