New Inspector Corey Lee Hired To RV Industry Association Standards Department

The RV Industry Association’s standards inspection program is one of the organization’s signature industry initiatives and its greatest member benefit. The standards department maintains a professional team of full-time inspectors that promote the enhancement of safety by monitoring adherence to the standards adopted by the board of directors for the construction of RVs and park model RVs. Corey Lee recently joined the team of inspectors who are responsible for more than 2,000 unannounced inspections of member company RV manufacturing plants annually.

Corey is already gaining experience with conducting inspections in his first weeks on the job. Although hired only recently, he has already participated in a couple of inspections at local manufacturing plants and will be traveling to plants across the U.S. going forward.

“It’s great to see the inspection process and be able to develop a good relationship with our members,” Corey said. “During our visits, we focus on educating the manufacturers to make sure all codes and safety standards are being followed.”

With a background in computers, electrical repair, and mechanical repair, Corey’s technical skill set blends well with his responsibilities on the standards team. He gained much of his expertise through his previous work with financial and retail technology company Diebold Corporation before eventually deciding he was ready for a career change. “I wanted a different challenge,” he explained. “I was looking for a change and this seemed like a great opportunity. I’m excited to get going with it.”

Corey adds that he’s looking forward to the chance to travel around the U.S. “I haven’t done much traveling around the country,” he said. “I’m looking forward to exploring more places when we’re on the road.”
