In the past, the present and undoubtedly in the future, coating specifications will be written and included in bid packages that will end up on your desk, mine and our fellow colleagues. More often than not these specifications are poorly written, boiler plated or haphazardly thrown together to hopefully provide us with enough information to successfully win and complete a given contract. Whether you are a project manager, estimator or a QA professional it is our job to go thru these packages and interpit the needed information to successfully obtain the contract and then develop a feasible PCP that will aid in a problem free contract completion. This presentation will describe some of the ways a process control procedure can be developed that will eliminate problems before they begin and if you are working with a poorly written spec you can, if properly written, make it work for you.
