Independent inspection, engineered for certainty.

We verify that what was ordered, built and shipped meets the standard it was promised to meet — through on-site inspection, non-destructive testing and independent verification. Every report is signed by the inspector who was physically there.

§ 01 — Capabilities

Eighteen services, four areas of work.

From a single shipment check to inspection coordination across a whole capital project — every engagement is scoped to the standard your contract, insurer or regulator actually requires.

Third-Party Inspection & Expediting
Group A

Third-Party Inspection & Expediting

Independent verification of what your supplier is building, before it ships.

NDT & Asset Integrity
Group B

NDT & Asset Integrity

Finding what a visual check cannot — in welds, vessels, tanks and piping.

Plant, Site & Field Inspection
Group C

Plant, Site & Field Inspection

On-site inspection during fabrication, shutdowns and project execution.

Quality, Audit & Compliance
Group D

Quality, Audit & Compliance

Systems, audits and documentation that stand up to scrutiny.

§ 02 — For international buyers

Vendor inspection and expediting inside European factories.

If you are buying equipment fabricated in Germany or the wider EU, someone independent has to stand in that factory before it ships — witness the tests, check the welds, verify the dimensions, and sign the report that releases your payment or clears the shipment.

Flying an inspector in from outside Europe is slow and expensive. We are based in Brandenburg, inside the manufacturing base, and typically mobilise within 24 to 48 hours.

  • Pre-inspection meetings and ITP review with your vendor
  • Witness and hold point attendance during fabrication
  • Factory acceptance test (FAT) attendance and reporting
  • Expediting reports on progress and schedule risk
  • Independent inspection certificates for letters of credit

§ 03 — Engagement

How an inspection moves from request to report.

A fixed sequence, so buyer, supplier and insurer all know exactly what happens next.

Step 01

Request & Scope

You submit the item, standard and location. We confirm scope, access and acceptance criteria within 24 hours.

Step 02

Planning

An inspection test plan is issued with hold and witness points, method statements and the assigned inspector's credentials.

Step 03

On-Site Execution

Inspection or testing is carried out to the referenced standard, with photographic and measurement evidence captured live.

Step 04

Report & Certificate

A signed, traceable report is issued within 48 hours, with a formal certificate where conformity is confirmed.

§ 04 — About Alpha PrüfKontor

A smaller inspection house, held to the same standards as the large ones.

Alpha PrüfKontor UG (haftungsbeschränkt) was founded to give manufacturers, contractors and buyers direct access to senior inspectors — without the layers that slow the large multinational bodies down.

Our methodology follows the framework of DIN EN ISO/IEC 17020 for inspection bodies, and we work to the same standards our clients already answer to: ISO 9001 quality management, ISO 3834 and EN 1090 for welded fabrication, and ISO 9712 for NDT personnel qualification.

  • Senior inspectors only — no outsourced field staff
  • Every report signed by the inspector who was on site
  • Reports issued within 48 hours, in German or English
  • Fixed-fee scoping — no engagement starts without a written ITP

§ 05 — Standards we work to

The frameworks behind every report we sign.

We do not ask clients to trust our judgement alone — every finding is traceable to a published standard.

  • Inspection body competence (methodology aligned to)DIN EN ISO/IEC 17020
  • Quality management systemsISO 9001:2015
  • Welding quality requirementsISO 3834
  • Execution of steel structuresEN 1090
  • NDT personnel qualificationISO 9712
  • Occupational health & safetyISO 45001

Note on ISO/IEC 17020: our inspection methodology is aligned to this framework. Alpha PrüfKontor is not currently an accredited inspection body — where formal accreditation is contractually required, we say so and coordinate with an accredited partner.
