QS1AMPP-QS1 is the standard procedure in the AMPP PCCP program that requires participating contractors to implement and document more stringent (ISO 9001 Compliant) quality control and record-keeping procedures than those included AMPP-QP1, AMPP-QP2, etc. However, unlike ISO 9001 certification, QS1 provides the facility owner with the dual benefit of a coatings-industry specific QMS model for contractors who have the operational capability required by QP1 plus the ISO 9001 compliant QMS detailed in QS1.
