Ensuring Quality at the Source
The Procurement & Fabrication phase transforms engineering designs into tangible components. Quality assurance at this stage is critical—defects, non-conformances, or material substitutions can compromise safety, delay schedules, and increase costs.
BQCIS mitigates these risks by embedding verification throughout the supply chain. Through Supplier Qualification Audits and Vendor (Shop) Inspections, we ensure that materials, fabrication methods, and documentation conform to client specifications and international codes.
Our inspectors perform real-time monitoring of manufacturing milestones, witness testing, review Material Test Certificates (MTCs), verify NDT results, and issue inspection reports prior to dispatch—ensuring compliant, defect-free equipment arrives ready for installation.
Key Procurement & Fabrication Activities
Key Benefits of Procurement & Fabrication Oversight
Early Quality Assurance
Detect and correct non-conformances during fabrication, avoiding costly rework at site.
Supplier Reliability
Continuous vendor evaluation improves reliability, performance, and on-time delivery of critical components.
Code & Specification Compliance
Independent inspection assures full conformity with client specs and international fabrication standards.
Reduced Delivery Risk
Proactive expediting and inspection prevent late deliveries that jeopardize downstream construction schedules.
Success Story
Vendor Inspection Catches Critical Weld Defect
A client ordered a high-pressure vessel from an overseas fabricator. Third-party inspection was required before shipment.
A BQCIS inspector performed final inspection—reviewing data books, MTCs, and NDT reports. Radiographic review revealed major weld porosity and lack of fusion previously missed by vendor QC.
BQCIS issued a Non-Conformance Report and prevented shipment of the defective vessel, averting costly site delays and safety exposure.
