William W. Corcoran (December 17, 1944 - May 22, 2024), Nadcap Auditor and finishing industry expert, has passed away at the age of 79 years. 

Corcoran’s experience in the finishing industry began in 1999 as owner and CEO of Katahdin Industries, a Boston area finishing shop focused on quality and innovation. Following the sale of the company in 2007, Corcoran continued his involvement in the metal finishing industry as a consultant and auditor. He started Nadcap auditing with the Performance Review Institute (PRI) in 2009 and has served many businesses as a consultant, both in the technical and business areas of metal finishing. His contributions to the industry will be greatly missed.
