The AMPP Awards Night, a highlight of the engineering calendar, was especially significant this year with Paul Vinik at the helm as the new Chair of the Board of Directors. Vinik, who assumed his role on January 1, shared his vision for a unified and global AMPP, reflecting on the night’s successes and the organization’s future direction.
The evening saw 40 to 50 awards handed out to some of the most distinguished members of the AMPP community, celebrating their service, talents, and achievements. “It’s a reflection of the diverse and global nature of our organization,” Vinik noted, emphasizing AMPP’s expansion beyond its American roots to become a truly international entity.
Vision for the Future: One AMPP, One Team
Under Vinik’s leadership, the board is actively working on merging two boards to form a single, cohesive unit. The concept of “One AMPP” signifies a unified approach to facing the challenges and opportunities ahead. With AMPP’s reach extending to over 123 countries, the organization stands at the forefront of global engineering and inspection standards.
