Project Description

The best procedure means nothing without the right hands. VAIC’s Welder Performance Qualification (WPQ) verifies that welders can consistently deliver compliant welds before they work on critical assets. The result is fewer defects, fewer delays, and stronger confidence for clients, auditors, and safety teams. If you want predictable quality from day one, welder qualification is one of the most valuable controls you can put in place.

Inspection technique

Welder qualification is performed through controlled test welds completed under defined conditions. VAIC organizes and supervises the tests, verifies the execution against the approved procedure, coordinates required examinations, and issues complete qualification records linked to the welder’s identity and qualification scope. We ensure traceability, clean documentation, and QHSE-driven site discipline—so your workforce is proven, compliant, and ready for production.
