Level 3 NDT Consulting Services can assist your business

When applying Code and Standards, such as ASME, AWS, ASTM, ISO and many more, there is a need for a written practice to train, quality and certify NDT personnel for your Company.

The essence of this recommendation is that you need to have a good control of your own quality needs.

As is known, when applying training and certification according to ISO 9712 or equivalent standards, the training content and the scope of certification only have a common knowledge span, common industry areas, common products. Meanwhile, each Company, each specific product, each specification may have narrow NDT testing range requirements that your NDT staff has certified not yet satisfying the required occupational skills.

The document SNT-TC-1A issued by ASNT is the basis for you to develop a practical procedure to train, qualify, certify, and authorize your employees to perform NDT. With this procedure, you can review the qualifications of certified NDT personnel from different sources such as ISO 9712 or another company's procedure. And it is also a great advantage for you to save money, time, take advantage of your available QC human resources to perform specific jobs that ISO 9712 Certificate holder does not have enough certification scope.

The NDT Level 3 Service will provide your Company from NDT system establishment, training, qualification, certification to procedure approval, technical instruction, report approval, etc., including QA work, supporting quality assurance, etc.
