Resilience. <br />
Finally, a paint for whatever the workday brings.<br />
You can’t always predict the weather or other application challenges. But,<br />
with Resilience, you can at least predict great results.<br />
Resilience resists moisture twice as fast as conventional paint, <strong>and</strong> lets you<br />
keep painting even when rain or dew are expected. Resilience is also low<br />
in VOC’s with excellent durability <strong>and</strong> hide no matter what the climate.<br />

<strong>PDCA</strong> <strong>2012</strong> MEMBERSHIP HANDBOOK<br />
In 2011, the <strong>Painting</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Decorating</strong> Contractors<br />
of America (<strong>PDCA</strong>) continued to focus on the<br />
needs of the membership. In doing so, <strong>PDCA</strong><br />
ended an 11-year slide in membership by growing net<br />
membership more than 15% from the prior year. As<br />
a member-focused organization, growth means new<br />
ideas, new leaders, <strong>and</strong> new resources to continue this<br />
momentum.<br />
Many members are experiencing slight increases in<br />
projects <strong>and</strong> bids. Government statistics underline<br />
small pockets of economic recovery. Although no<br />
large, noticeable activity was seen in the commercial<br />
or residential construction sectors, many <strong>PDCA</strong><br />
members’ marketing <strong>and</strong> advertising efforts may now<br />
be paying off.<br />
In an effort to reflect the technological <strong>and</strong> generational<br />
shifts taking place in the workplace, <strong>PDCA</strong><br />
continues to apply resources to broadening the use of<br />
technology in the delivery of education, the support<br />
of the volunteer leader base, <strong>and</strong> dissemination of<br />
important membership information.<br />
These online initiatives were most visible in the new<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong> website launched in July. The website now<br />
sits atop the <strong>PDCA</strong> database <strong>and</strong> allows greater <strong>and</strong><br />
simpler use for <strong>PDCA</strong> members <strong>and</strong> leaders.<br />
MEMBERSHIP: There was a very strong push in<br />
2011 to increase membership, resulting in a net increase<br />
of 275 members. <strong>PDCA</strong> National staff sought<br />
out prior members with invitations to re-join. The<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong> National Champions participated in the Free<br />
Trial <strong>Membership</strong> Program by distributing<br />
applications through their respective sales representative<br />
networks. Local units throughout the country<br />
also promoted membership through the Free Trial<br />
Program.<br />
COMMUNICATIONS: Electronic communica-<br />

tions were increased, significantly reducing overall<br />
printing costs. The <strong>PDCA</strong> Board of Directors<br />
approved the endorsement of American <strong>Painting</strong><br />
Contractor as the official magazine of <strong>PDCA</strong>. <strong>PDCA</strong><br />
National staff continues to receive feedback from<br />
members <strong>and</strong> leaders regarding all <strong>PDCA</strong> membership<br />
benefits <strong>and</strong> communications.<br />
UNIT SUPPORT: Providing support to volunteer<br />
leaders is key to the ongoing programming success<br />
<strong>and</strong> growth of <strong>PDCA</strong>. <strong>PDCA</strong> Chair Darylene Dennon<br />
organized <strong>and</strong> initiated a monthly leadership conference<br />
call to provide feedback <strong>and</strong> quality control to<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong> National staff regarding existing <strong>and</strong> impending<br />
programs <strong>and</strong> services. A leadership e-weekly<br />
newsletter was created for dissemination of important<br />
leadership information. <strong>PDCA</strong> National produced<br />
promotional banners <strong>and</strong> printed collateral material<br />
for units to increase promotion <strong>and</strong> recognition of<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong> membership benefits at local events.<br />
PARTNERSHIPS: Industry relationships continued<br />
to grow <strong>and</strong> flourish in 2011. More than a dozen<br />
new National Associates were added to <strong>PDCA</strong>’s<br />
membership rolls, <strong>and</strong> <strong>PDCA</strong>’s National Champions<br />
(Benjamin Moore Paints, Glidden Professional<br />
<strong>and</strong> Sherwin-Williams) also renewed their commitments<br />
<strong>and</strong> involvement with <strong>PDCA</strong>. Richard Greene,<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong>’s CEO, was invited to deliver a presentation<br />
at the American Coatings Association in the fall of<br />
2011, <strong>and</strong> <strong>PDCA</strong> continued to build relationships<br />
with industry-related organizations such as IDAL,<br />
NGPP <strong>and</strong> NARI.<br />
ADVOCACY & ETHICS: In an effort to protect<br />
the <strong>PDCA</strong> br<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> the proprietary use of<br />
the <strong>PDCA</strong> logo by members, <strong>PDCA</strong> National staff<br />
aggressively pursued contractors illegally using <strong>and</strong><br />
referencing the <strong>PDCA</strong> br<strong>and</strong>. This resulted in several<br />
new memberships. <strong>PDCA</strong> continues to monitor <strong>and</strong>

comment on the EPA RRP ruling <strong>and</strong> other efforts<br />
that negatively impact the industry <strong>and</strong> <strong>PDCA</strong> members.<br />
EDUCATION: <strong>PDCA</strong> Contractor College monthly<br />
webinars were initiated in 2011, designed to provide<br />
opportunities for members to hear presentations<br />
from industry <strong>and</strong> business experts. More than 200<br />
attendees registered <strong>and</strong> participated in five webinars,<br />
which are archived <strong>and</strong> available on the <strong>PDCA</strong> website<br />
for future reference.<br />
5 4 <strong>2012</strong> <strong>PDCA</strong> ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP REPORT HANDBOOK<br />
In March, more than 400 industry contractors <strong>and</strong> suppliers<br />
gathered in Orl<strong>and</strong>o, Fla., for the 2011 <strong>Painting</strong><br />
<strong>and</strong> <strong>Decorating</strong> Expo, a <strong>PDCA</strong>-only convention <strong>and</strong> exhibition.<br />
Attendees participated in more than 30 educational<br />
classes, visited the two-day vendor exhibition, <strong>and</strong><br />
had fun at the evening receptions provided by the three<br />
National Champions.<br />
In conjunction with authors Malcolm Parvey <strong>and</strong> Deborah<br />
Alston, <strong>PDCA</strong> also produced “The Definitive Guide<br />
to Government Contracts.” The authors attended the<br />
Expo, where copies of the book were made available to<br />
attendees.<br />
GOVERNANCE & OPERATIONS: In the fall, the<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong> Board of Directors approved new minimum<br />
st<strong>and</strong>ards for Councils <strong>and</strong> Chapters that include required<br />
annual meetings, as well as timely submission of<br />
compliance <strong>and</strong> financial documentation information. A<br />
new database <strong>and</strong> accounting system were implemented,<br />
allowing for greater transparency <strong>and</strong> accessibility of<br />
membership data to local leaders.<br />
<strong>2012</strong> FOCUS<br />
Get Better. Get Smarter. Get Business.<br />
The main focus of <strong>PDCA</strong> resource allocation in <strong>2012</strong><br />
will be directed towards the promotion of increased<br />
participation in <strong>PDCA</strong> activities. This includes providing<br />
additional tools to local unit leaders, as well as<br />
increased communications with members. Over the last<br />
three years, membership benefits have been improved<br />
<strong>and</strong> new benefits added. In <strong>2012</strong>, <strong>PDCA</strong> National staff<br />
will work diligently to inform members of the value of<br />
membership through participation in educational programming,<br />
upgrading findapainter.com profiles, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
use <strong>and</strong> implementation of <strong>PDCA</strong> Industry St<strong>and</strong>ards.

Chair’s Message<br />
Dave Ayala<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong> Chair<br />
You the Member<br />
First, I want to thank all the members who mentored me through my 30 years in<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong>. I am here because of your efforts <strong>and</strong> guidance. Thank you.<br />
As a member of <strong>PDCA</strong>, you wear many hats:<br />
• First, as a contractor trying to make your business succeed;<br />
• Second, as a Chapter member, trying to accomplish things you can’t do alone;<br />
• Third, as a member of a Council <strong>and</strong> Chapter, working collectively to address<br />
the problems in the state<br />
• Finally, as a member of <strong>PDCA</strong> National, supporting an organization that<br />
is dedicated to educating <strong>and</strong> protecting your rights, <strong>and</strong> hosts events that<br />
bring us together for the betterment of the industry.<br />
That being said, what do you need to do to get the most out of <strong>PDCA</strong>?<br />
Associate. Participate. And, most importantly, share your knowledge with others. Be a mentor <strong>and</strong> a leader at<br />
whatever level you choose to participate.<br />
Thanks to Richard Greene <strong>and</strong> his dedicated staff, <strong>PDCA</strong> is once again a vital part in the growth of your business.<br />
You can take pride in your national organization – it’s making changes with you, the member, in mind.<br />
Your dues dollars go to support every level of <strong>PDCA</strong>. Get involved again <strong>and</strong> help <strong>PDCA</strong> take itself to the next<br />
level.<br />
I am going to ask a favor of you, the members: be proud of your association, learn what it has to offer, participate<br />
at the local level, make your Council viable, <strong>and</strong> attend <strong>and</strong> participate in the education programs <strong>and</strong> leadership<br />
training.<br />
I am certain once you avail yourself to what <strong>PDCA</strong> can do, you will promote <strong>PDCA</strong> at all levels <strong>and</strong> become a<br />
mentor, because you have a lot to offer your fellow contractors.<br />
Thank you again to the members at every level who have been there for me <strong>and</strong> will be there for me in the future.<br />

<strong>PDCA</strong>’s A. E. Robert Friedman Scholarship Fund<br />
For more than 30 years, <strong>PDCA</strong> has been able to award scholarships to deserving students because of the A. E. Robert Friedman<br />
Scholarship Fund. The Fund was formed in 1978 to honor Bob Friedman on the occasion of his 40th anniversary as legal counsel for the <strong>Painting</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>Decorating</strong> Contractors of America. He served in that capacity until 1981.<br />
The Scholarship Fund is open to any high school senior or college-age student seeking to further their education. Rules can be found on the <strong>PDCA</strong><br />
website at www.pdca.org. The nomination letter must come from a <strong>PDCA</strong> member in good st<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>and</strong> include the student’s name, address, age <strong>and</strong><br />
telephone number, the level of schooling to which the award will be applied (i.e. college, graduate school), <strong>and</strong> the name of the school or institution where<br />
he or she has been accepted or enrolled.<br />
<strong>PDCA</strong> Education Foundation<br />
In 1984, as <strong>PDCA</strong> prepared to celebrate its first 100 years as a national association, Benjamin Moore & Company presented <strong>PDCA</strong> with a gift of $10,000.<br />
This gift was used to establish a foundation whose purpose would be to provide ongoing educational programs for contractors in the coating <strong>and</strong> wall covering<br />
industry. In 1986, <strong>PDCA</strong> formally established the <strong>PDCA</strong> Education Foundation as a 501(c)3 organization. The Foundation has funded the production<br />
of many <strong>PDCA</strong> programs <strong>and</strong> publications, including The Hazard<br />
Communication Manual, Cost & Estimating Guide, <strong>and</strong> countless estimating seminars. All programs <strong>and</strong> publications have been produced with the<br />
Foundation’s original intent: to upgrade the industry through continuing contractor educational opportunities. The Education Foundation has played a<br />
significant role in funding the <strong>PDCA</strong> Contractor College <strong>and</strong> Accreditation programs.
