Pipeline Engineering Quality Management System

摘要

I've only been working in the pipeline engineering business for a short time, but have noticed a disparity between how the quality systems of the two main portions of the business are structured. This, even though corporate quality and construction quality systems both follow the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9001:2008 format of quality standards. Part of the issue is applying corporate quality management systems (QMS) to pipeline construction environments. The Interstate Natural Gas Association of America (INGAA) has addressed this issue by implementing construction QMS (CQMS) for installation of the pipeline and supporting facilities.
