Technical Consultancy

Our design process compliance consultancy provides this methodology, competence and hard work. It encompasses all relevant and current influencing factors e.g. client specifications, industry standards, best practice and regulation compliance. And it gives clear and logical steps to manage the design objectives in an efficient and effective manner.

Formal Process Safety Assessments can take many different forms depending on the industry you are in. QEM can provide structured and refreshingly beneficial processes and chaired assessments for HAZCON's, HAZOPS, HAZID's and HAZDEM's. We are registered chairpersons for many of the energy & utilities providers.

Often overlooked, the writing of a good technical specification or procedure can mean the difference between a safe or compliant asset and one that cannot be adopted or operated. These can range from work instructions to technical specifications defining the minimum engineering requirements for a piece of apparatus,

You have no doubt been there, had a project delayed or stopped due to lack of materials or wrong delivery. Even something as simple as wrong certification. It's easily done – and extremely frustrating. Now imagine that being someone else's responsibility. Give the procurement to the QEM Solutions team.

Most people call it 'Tea & Biscuits Time.' Not us. We don't let it drag out. It's time to get the client's final invoice submitted early. This means that at the end of the project everyone is left with a very good impression, just in time for the next one!

It's the start of the project. And everyone just wants to get stuck in. So start up consultancy is the kind of job that most people don't like doing, or don't have time to do. However, without a good start up plan, we all know that there will be standing time and increased project costs.

As clients and contractors we are obliged to vet and monitor our suppliers and the quality of materials / workmanship to ensure that their equipment or goods have been manufactured in accordance with the relevant specifications. It's a key part of project quality control. It can stop valuable delays later down the line and reduce construction costs.

It doesn't matter how well you have designed your asset. If you have not controlled the construction activities that impact on integrity, then the asset will never have the expected design life. In addition to this, you could be dramatically increasing the likelihood of a safety or environmental incident due to asset failure.

Ignition hazard Assessments have been commonplace in the industry for many years, with the primary focus on electrical equipment. QEM can carry out ignition hazard and DSEAR assessments for both electrical and non-electrical equipment.

Often the subject of ridicule, risk management is a serious business and a tool that has become an essential requirement in business, design and construction. Here at QEM Solutions we address risk management in a logical and methodical manner. The result? A definite increase in the probability of success of project, apparatus and infrastructure.

Even at this early stage, QEM take into account the full life cycle of the project; from design, construction and commissioning through to operation, maintenance and decommissioning. We ensure all elements have been considered for suitability.
