Quality Assurance Act

Important for the quality assurance professional within the WKB

A quality assurance company assesses completely independently whether a building plan can comply with and ultimately also complies with the Besluit bouwwerken leefomgeving (Bbl), formerly the Bouwbesluit. The quality assurance officer may not be involved in the realization of the new building project in any other way than in the role of quality assurance officer. A quality assurance officer may therefore not be the client, architect, contractor, etc. of the construction work for which the quality assurance officer is hired.

The certification process starts as soon as the applicant commissions SKG-IKOB Certificatie for certification. Once you have signed and returned our proposal to us, we will contact you to further initiate the certification. The proposal is automatically converted into the certification agreement after a positive completion of the entrance examination.

The certification process consists of an examination (audit) with regard to the quality system of the applicant, in the field of the brl 5019 "Quality Assurance for Building" process.
