Global Third-Party Inspection, FAT & Vendor Audits
Advanced NDT Solutions Inspection Engineers provide comprehensive Third-Party Inspection services, specializing in the Pharmaceutical and Oil & Gas sectors across Ireland and overseas. Our extensive experience ensures that your plant and equipment meet all compliance standards before they ever leave the factory.
Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) & Pre-FAT
We offer critical support during the construction phase to validate equipment prior to shipping. Engaging Advanced NDT Solutions at the early stages of a project ensures that potential defects are resolved immediately, preventing them from becoming major quality issues at startup.
- Vendor Audits: We conduct rigorous audits to ensure suppliers meet your quality standards.
- Validation Leverage: Our detailed inspection reports serve as leverage during validation, minimizing the redundant checks required during FAT and Pre-FAT.
- Witness Testing: We independently witness Pressure Testing, Coverage Tests, and Drainability Checks to confirm conformance to Client and International Specifications.
Specialized NDT & Metrology Services
Advanced NDT Solutions is equipped with advanced diagnostic tools to carry out independent inspections and confirm acceptance. Our technical capabilities include:
- Borescope Inspections: For internal visual inspection of piping and welds.
- Positive Material Identification (PMI): Verifying alloy composition.
- Surface Roughness & Ferrite Measurement: Ensuring surface finish and material properties meet hygienic or structural requirements.
- Slope Checks: Verifying gravity flow requirements in piping systems.
- Ultrasonic & Eddy Current Inspection: Detecting sub-surface flaws.
Material Certification & Traceability (EN10204 3.0)
Missing paperwork should not delay your project. If material test certification is unavailable, Advanced NDT Solutions can provide the necessary verification of material grade, hardness, surface roughness, and ferrite content.
We can produce EN10204 3.0 certification to retrospectively validate components, ensuring all Traceability and VDR (Vendor Data Requirement) obligations are met.
