– Verify that welding and jointing procedures, parameters, and operator qualifications comply with manufacturer specifications and relevant ISO, EN, DVS, and DIN standards.
– Review recorded process parameters (e.g., heating temperature, pressure, time, alignment, and cooling duration) as captured by welding machines, ensuring compliance with approved procedures and full traceability.
– Verify surface preparation, alignment, and environmental conditions before welding or cementing.
– Conduct in-process and final inspections to detect and document any deviations or non- conformities.
– Maintain accurate, traceable, and complete inspection records, welding logs, and calibration data in accordance with the ISO 9001:2015 QMS.
– Support calibration control and verification of fusion machines, measuring tools, and inspection equipment.

Drawing and Material Verification – Act as a technical support and second line of verification for the Operational team, reviewing issued drawings and material lists to ensure they are complete, clear, and suitable for production.
– Verify that engineering drawings contain all necessary information for fabrication and welding, such as dimensions, tolerances, alignment references, jointing symbols, and process notes, supporting operators in correctly interpreting the design.
– Review that critical dimensions and tolerances are defined and correspond to the actual components and site constraints.
– Cross-check the drawing content against the Bill of Materials (BOM) to confirm that all pipe sizes, materials, fittings, and jointing types are correctly identified and available for use.
– Confirm that only latest approved drawing revisions are being distributed and used in production.
– Report any missing information, unclear technical details, or inconsistencies to the Engineering or H&SQ&S department before fabrication begins, helping to prevent errors or rework. Pre-Dispatch / Final QC Verification – Verify that all finished products are included in the approved dispatch list before loading to customers.
– Ensure that all assemblies and joints have passed visual and dimensional inspection and are supported by the required data logs and traceability records.
– Confirm that each product is correctly identified, labelled, and documented in line with the delivery list.
– Check cleanliness, marking, protection caps, and packaging quality prior to loading.
– Sign off on Final QC Release Reports and ensure all documentation is complete and traceable. Additional Responsibilities – Ensure that only approved and traceable materials (pipes, fittings, solvents, etc.) are used in production.
– Verify that equipment calibration, maintenance, and software versions are valid before use.
– Support the preparation of as-built documentation (welding logs, inspection reports, material certificates) for customer handover packages.
– Promote continuous improvement and share feedback on recurring quality issues or process deviations.
