Our service ...

. is providing high quality solutions in the area of mechanical integrity including materials engineering for your demands on a global basis (Asia, Europe and Americas). Within the wide range of our activities we focus on two main working topics in order to optimize your benefit:

Manufacturing Support Services (MSS)

Those services are designed to provide tailor-made cost effective solutions for operational facilities. We help you to maintain the integrity and improve the reliability of your equipment by providing very specialized valueadded services in the areas of materials/corrosion engineering, inspection technology as well as implementing and supporting risk management programs.

In detail, we specialize in:

• Providing Reliability Centered Maintenance Expertise
• Knowledge Risk Based Inspection Assessments & Implementation and Inspection Planning
• Fitness for Service Assessments supporting Reliability, Maintenance and Inspection
• Providing Materials and Corrosion Preventing Consulting, including seal and lubricant technology
• Root cause failure analysis for metals, nonmetallic materials, liner and coatings to find economic solutions
• Mechanical, metallographic, corrosion and nondestructive material testing
• Water Treatment, effectiveness monitoring and consulting

Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC)

Our services for capital and small investment projects include providing specialized engineering and fabrication knowledge and services to engineering companies and end-user within chemical process industry, and the pharmaceutical industry. You specify the general approach to be applied from bare bone engineering concepts with minimum QA/QC input up to full Life Cycle Cost approach, taking all cost aspects in consideration, namely investment cost and the lifetime operational/maintenance cost. We will ensure that the quality requirements are fulfilled and that the project remains on-schedule and on-budget.

Consequently, the performance of investment projects and procurement activities is subject increasingly to national and international laws and regulations. The varying requirements and increased complexity encountered in this context make it difficult to ensure the necessary quality standards for equipment. We stand on your side to tackle these challenges with our QA/QC services from the most important industrial continents: Americas, Asia and Europe.
