Welding Inspection and Supervision

ECE Staff is qualified to inspect and supervise the majority of your welding activities. Depending on either your clients’ requirements, or as part of selected CE or Pi (π) Marking assessment and approval procedures, welding activities may require supervision by an external agency (see also construction surveillance). We provide services related to welding activities, keeping in mind the importance of certification and compliance, as well as customer satisfaction.

Welding inspections and supervision are a great opportunity for us to add value to your organization. Many of our clients find our technical expertise invaluable due to our keen understanding of the issues and the balance between customer satisfaction, engineering requirements, and the need to obtain certifications and compliance's.

For instance, it is important to realize that welding is a process which should be considered during design input assessments (e.g. as part of risk assessments and HAZOP studies). We provide support with risk and HAZOP studies, and can effectively support you with such tasks.

Please note that ECE Global, LLC is in the position to provide feedback on documentation as we receive it. We consider it to be value-added to your organization. Just let us know if you would like to receive such inputs!
