Industrial & manufacturing
Controlling quality and managing risk are vital to the success of industrial process and manufacturing companies. To avoid costly shutdowns, companies seek to implement rigorous quality management systems, and regularly assess the safety, performance and integrity of their equipment and facilities.
Ensure the safety, efficiency and reliability of your activities, equipment and operations.
Our principal focus is supporting safety and reliability and preserving asset integrity. Services such as risk-based inspection go beyond pure compliance. They focus on testing and inspecting process equipment in a high-risk environment to minimize potential losses in terms of safety, environmental and equipment damage and business interruption. Oil analysis also plays an important role in minimizing production downtime due to equipment failure.
