Certifications & Compliance: A Foundation of Audited Excellence

For engineering companies, system integrators, and OEMs delivering custom systems, manufacturing uncertainty creates risk that can derail project schedules and budgets. At Northern Manufacturing, we systematically reduce that uncertainty. We build a “digital thread”—an unbroken stream of data from a single 3D model—that drives accuracy, speed, and cost-efficiency from the first quote to the final weld. This proactive approach allows us to deliver the predictability your complex projects demand.

PROCESS CONTROL

Our CWI oversees our welding program, insuring quality welds go into every product we make.

Audit-Ready by Design: Certainty You Can Document

We believe quality isn’t an afterthought—it’s engineered into every step of the process. Our system is built to ensure every critical attribute is meticulously documented with Objective Quality Evidence (OQE). 

  • APQP / Risk Assessment: Through our advanced production quality planning, we identify and mitigate risks to your project. We plan to ensure all on all items deemed critical to quality.
  • Objective Quality Evidence (OQE): Concrete proof, including 3D laser scan reports, PMI results for alloy verification, and certified weld records.
  • Inspection Test Plans: We build our production around your project’s inspection test plan, including hold, verify, and witness points. We can provide a comprehensive and organized turnover package that fully documents a clear audit trail your customers will accept.

Inspection Expertise — AWS CWI & Level III (per SNT‑TC‑1A)

We’ve built an internal center of excellence for verification, led by on-staff experts who are masters of their craft. This ensures that every component meets the most rigorous standards before it leaves our facility.Your Assurance of Process Control

AWS Certified Welding Inspection (CWI)

Our on-staff AWS CWIs are the gatekeepers of weld quality. They visually inspect and verify every critical weld to ensure 100% code compliance before any product is released, preventing costly rework and ensuring structural integrity.

ASNT Level III NDT Leadership

An in-house ASNT Level III expert provides master-level oversight. This individual develops, qualifies, and oversees all NDT procedures (e.g., PT, VT) and is responsible for training and certifying our Level II inspection personnel.

Positive Material Identification (PMI)

We confirm the integrity of our raw materials from the start. Using state-of-the-art XRF analyzers, we perform PMI to verify the alloy composition of materials, ensuring full traceability and preventing material non-conformance.
