CCi Prestressed Concrete Plant Certification Program

The CCi Prestressed Concrete Plant Certification Program follows the dictates of PCI MNL 116, the Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute's internationally recognized prestressed concrete specification. All biannual unannounced inspections last for a full production cycle.

Owner and Founder Fred McGee felt a quality prestressed concrete plant certification program that follows PCI's MNL 116 Specification for Prestressed Concrete did not have to be expensive to be effective and thorough. "Prestressed trade association certification costs a small plant around $30,000 a year for two, one day inspections and can go up to over $100,000 for a large plant which is absurd," he said.

CCi Prestressed Concrete Plant Certification costs $8,000 per year for two full production cycle inspections with no added requirement and expense of membership. CCi Inspectors remain in the plant to completion regardless of the time required to witness a full production cycle which usually requires a day and a half. "There is finally a choice," said Fred McGee, "the monopoly of single source certification is over and as a result, the price has dramatically declined."
