Certification coverage is not
automatic; application must be made

Certificate of
Conformance Certification
As evidence of
NEBB's commitment to quality, a
unique certificate (with project
specific information) is issued for
each project covered by a
Conformance Certification.
| Rules
of Procedure - The
Conformance Certification is
guided by a written "Rules
of Procedure", which
provides a specific procedure
for addressing issues of
non-conformance with NEBB
procedural standards.
|
| Model
Specification - A model
specification has been developed
which contains appropriate
language for incorporating the
Conformance Certification in the
contract documents by the
specifying authority. |
The Certificate of
Conformance is the latest step in
NEBB's initiatives in establishing
standards of high quality in the
industry. Since its inception, NEBB
has earned -- and maintained -- its
reputation for Quality by:
Developing
comprehensive Procedural Standards
for each of its four current
disciplines. Selecting candidate
firms with reputations for
responsible and quality performance,
and who agree to comply with the
objectives of NEBB. Certifying NEBB
firms only after they have on staff
a full-time NEBB-Qualified
Supervisor who has met NEBB's
educational and experience
requirements, and passed a battery
of written and practical
examinations. The firm must also
own, and maintain calibration of, a
complete set of precision
instruments. Requiring
re-certification biennially for
continuous verification that the
Certified Firm still has a complete
set of required calibrated
instruments, and that their
qualified Supervisor has complied
with the annual continuing
educational requirements |
