The ASME Nuclear Quality Assurance-1 (NQA-1) standard is an internationally recognized set of requirements for establishing quality assurance programs across the full lifecycle of nuclear facilities. PCL's nuclear quality program is compliant with NQA-1, ensuring consistent quality assurance across siting, design, fabrication, construction, and decommissioning activities.

ISO 9001:2015 certification confirms that PCL's quality management system meets internationally recognized standards for consistency, documentation, and continuous improvement.

Engineering, procurement, construction, and project management services (mechanical, structural, electrical, and civil work), installation, pipe fabrication and assembly of pipe spools for the nuclear industry.

The Canadian Standards Association establish nuclear quality management requirements specific to Canada's nuclear industry and complements PCL's ASME credentials for domestic projects.

Compliant Nuclear Quality Management System that demonstrates PCL Nuclear Fabrication Inc.’s ability to provide engineering, procurement, fabrication, and construction services to the nuclear industry of Canada.

10 CFR 50 Appendix B is the foundational U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) regulation establishing mandatory quality assurance (QA) requirements for nuclear power plants.

PCL’s quality manual and management systems are 10 CFR 50 appendix B, CSA N299.1, and CSA N286 compliant
