The Corporate Report 2012: Process Industry Practices (PIP)

We are a consortium of process plant owners and engineering construction contractors harmonizing member companies’ internal standards for design, procurement, construction and maintenance into a set of industrywide practices for voluntary use.

As of November 2012, PIP’s active membership encompasses 67 companies, plus 63 additional subscriber and licensee companies. PIP members share the goal of reducing total installed costs of process plants by up to 6% through the implementation of common industry practices.
