ABS Consulting services

In every market we serve, we use technology and knowledge to inspect and verify that assets are as they should be for the required stage of their development. Whether your project is a newbuild, major modification or conversion, our international network of third party inspectors can help you maintain safety, reliability and integrity in compliance with the applicable codes, standards and technical project requirements. Regardless of the life cycle stage of the project – from procurement through operation – our independent reporting confirms the information you need to know so the appropriate decisions can be made.

ABS Group has been a recognized provider of quality services internationally for over 40 years. Our global network of offices and multidisciplined team of engineers and scientists have the extensive consultancy, managerial and technical experience in the industry to implement a fully certified quality management system. Serving as Project Quality Manager, ABS Group can represent the project owner`s interests as a second party and provide the staff, systems and processes to monitor quality, cost and schedule. Alternatively, we can function as an independent third party to monitor and audit project performance to meet minimum safety and quality standards.

By understanding the actual condition of your asset, sound management decisions can be made, driving reliability, efficiency and profitability. Whether for a newbuild or existing vessel, our survey and inspection services can provide valuable condition details. As part of our report, we prepare an executive summary with an extensive photographic record and relevant vessel drawings.

ABS Group has extensive process safety management (PSM) experience in various industries. Our engineers understand which PSM activities and features are practical and efficient. We have helped clients implement PSM programs that satisfy regulatory requirements and fit a specific company’s organizational culture. We will work with you to customize a comprehensive PSM program or specific elements of a PSM program that fit your operations.
