NRMCA Revises Process for Certification of Delivery Vehicles

NRMCA is notifying interested parties of an update to the required forms to complete for certification of delivery vehicles for the NRMCA Plant Certification Program (a link to the revised NRMCA’s Fleet Inspection Reporting Form is below). This form has to be used for initial certification and to re-certify delivery vehicles. NRMCA will not accept submission of older forms. Since the certification of the concrete production facility is valid for a period of two years, the delivery vehicles shall be re-inspected during the certification period of the production facility to maintain its certification status.

The NRMCA program does permit two options – Option A where the inspection is performed by the company and audited by the inspecting engineer and Option B where the delivery vehicles are inspected by the inspecting engineer who performs the plant inspection. Certification expiration for the delivery vehicles is 14 months from the date of inspection to allow for a nominal annual inspection. NRMCA recognizes that the delivery vehicles are an integral part of the production process and cannot issue certification for production facilities without certified vehicles. 

The Check List includes provisions for inspection and certification of truck mixers, agitators and non-agitating units. The delivery fleet inspection requires that not more than one unit or 10 percent of the units, whichever is greater, to be used at the plant fails to meet requirements. A copy of the current Plant Certification Check List (Eleventh Revision) is only provided to inspectors approved to perform inspections for the program. A listing of approved inspectors is available on the NRMCA Web site.
