TNV Inspection Division for Engineering Services / ERDMP

Our inspection services in the Engineering Services / ERDMP sector cover a wide range of disciplines, including mechanical, electrical, civil, and chemical engineering, as well as project management and system design processes. We ensure that all stages of the engineering lifecycle adhere to the highest standards and best practices.

Key Areas We Cover:

1.Engineering Design Inspections
The design phase is critical to the overall success of engineering projects. Our inspections evaluate the design process to ensure that the product or system design adheres to engineering principles, safety standards, and client requirements.

Key Areas We Cover:

• Design Integrity – Ensuring that the design is structurally sound, functional, and efficient.
• Material Selection – Evaluating the choice of materials used in the design to ensure durability and compliance with safety standards.
• Sustainability and Environmental Impact – Reviewing designs for environmental friendliness, energy efficiency, and sustainability.
• Compliance with Regulatory Standards – Ensuring the design meets all relevant regulatory requirements and industry standards, such as ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management).
• Cost-Efficiency – Evaluating the cost-effectiveness of the design to ensure optimal resource allocation and budget management.

2.Manufacturing Inspections
The manufacturing process is a crucial phase in any engineering project. Our inspections ensure that manufacturing processes meet quality standards, that products are built as per design specifications, and that production facilities comply with safety and environmental regulations.

Key Areas We Cover:

• Quality Control – Inspecting raw materials, manufacturing processes, and final products to ensure they meet required specifications.
• Safety Standards – Verifying adherence to safety regulations to protect workers and prevent accidents during manufacturing.
• Production Efficiency – Assessing production processes to identify areas for improvement and ensure the efficient use of resources.
• Supply Chain Management – Evaluating the supply chain processes to ensure timely delivery of materials and components.
• Compliance with International Standards – Ensuring manufacturing processes comply with relevant standards such as ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety Management).

3.Project Management Inspections
Effective project management is key to delivering engineering projects on time and within budget. Our project management inspections evaluate the planning, execution, and control of engineering projects to ensure that they follow established timelines, budgetary constraints, and quality standards.

Key Areas We Cover:

• Project Planning and Scheduling – Assessing the project’s timeline, milestones, and deadlines to ensure they are realistic and achievable.
• Budget Management – Evaluating the financial management of the project, including cost estimation, budgeting, and cost control measures.
• Risk Management – Identifying potential risks, bottlenecks, and issues that could impact the project’s success and proposing mitigation strategies.
• Resource Allocation – Ensuring that the appropriate resources (human, material, and financial) are allocated effectively to achieve project goals.
• Compliance with Project Management Standards – Ensuring the project follows recognized project management frameworks such as PMBOK (Project Management Body of Knowledge) and ISO 21500 (Project Management Guidelines).

4.Manufacturing and Assembly Inspections
We also provide inspections at the manufacturing and assembly stages to ensure that products are produced according to specifications and that assembly processes are carried out correctly.

Key Areas We Cover:

• Assembly Line Inspection – Verifying that all assembly operations are completed accurately and according to approved designs.
• Component Integrity – Ensuring that each individual part meets quality standards and is correctly integrated into the final assembly.
• Functionality Testing – Performing tests on the assembled product to ensure it functions as intended and meets performance standards.
• Final Product Inspections – Conducting thorough inspections before delivery to ensure that the final product meets all specifications and quality standards.

5.Testing and Validation Inspections
Testing and validation are essential to verify that the engineering product or system functions correctly, performs reliably, and meets all safety standards. Our inspections evaluate the testing processes for quality assurance and regulatory compliance.

Key Areas We Cover:

• Prototype Testing – Ensuring that prototypes are tested thoroughly to identify potential issues before full-scale production.
• Performance and Durability Testing – Verifying that the product performs under stress conditions and is durable over time.
• Safety and Regulatory Compliance – Testing to ensure the product complies with industry-specific safety regulations, such as CE marking for Europe or UL listing for the United States.
• Environmental Testing – Evaluating how the product performs under environmental conditions (e.g., temperature extremes, humidity, etc.).
• Regulatory Approvals – Assisting in obtaining necessary regulatory approvals for product launch, ensuring compliance with relevant standards.

6.Research and Development (R&D) Inspections
Research and development is a critical stage for creating new engineering solutions. Our inspections ensure that R&D activities are conducted in accordance with industry best practices, ensuring product feasibility, innovation, and compliance with research standards.

Key Areas We Cover:

• Feasibility Studies – Evaluating the practicality and cost-effectiveness of new engineering solutions.
• Prototyping and Design Verification – Verifying that prototypes meet design specifications and function as expected.
• Innovation and Market Readiness – Assessing the potential for new engineering solutions to be commercially viable and meet market needs.
• Compliance with Industry Standards – Ensuring that R&D processes align with relevant regulations and standards for safety, quality, and environmental impact.
