Third-Party Inspection (TPI)
Independent inspection.
Verified quality.
On schedule.
Our certified inspectors confirm that materials and equipment meet specification before payment, shipment or installation — working for the buyer, never the vendor, from the supplier’s factory to commissioning on site.
- BGAS certified coating inspectors
- CSWIP certified welding inspectors
- Saudi Aramco standards
Independent by design
Quality is proven before it costs you
Every check we make protects your schedule — catching non-conformance at the vendor’s works, not after it reaches site.
01
Before payment or shipment
Goods are verified against specification before you pay, before they ship and before they are installed.
02
On the buyer’s side
Our inspectors represent you — not the vendor — so every finding is impartial.
03
Factory to commissioning
Quality is checked at every stage, from the supplier’s works to final commissioning on site.
