Run audit-ready NDT inspections and welder qualifications, start to finish.
One Odoo app for work orders, eight-method inspection reports, welder credentials, and QR-verified certificates — so every result and every qualification stays traceable from quote to client handoff.
The problem
NDT labs and welder-certification bodies track eight different test methods, standards (ASME, ISO, AWS, CSWIP, IWE), and welder continuity records across spreadsheets, PDFs, and email. A single lost continuity record or an expired inspector credential can invalidate work and expose the business to liability — yet audit prep still happens by hand, under deadline pressure.
The solution
A single work-order state machine takes every job from quote to certificate, enforcing review and approval at each step. Welder qualifications, continuity, and expiries are tracked automatically; certificates carry a public QR code for instant no-login verification; and clients follow their own jobs through a self-service portal — so the paper trail builds itself.
Everything an inspection lab needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Work order state machine
Draft, Confirmed, In Progress, Under Review, Approved, Certificate Generated, and Completed — with Cancelled and Rejected paths — so no certificate is ever issued without a documented review.
All eight NDT methods
Standardized report templates for Visual, Ultrasonic, Radiographic, Magnetic Particle, Penetrant, Eddy Current, Leak, and Hydrostatic testing — full method coverage, not a subset.
Welder qualification scoring
Record WQT/WPQ test results and pass/fail scoring against the governing standard — the credential every welding customer must maintain.
Continuity & expiry tracking
Six-month continuity records flag breaks automatically, and recertification reminders fire before credentials lapse — so invalid work never ships.
QR-verified certificates
Every approved job generates a certificate with a public, no-login QR verification page, so any client or auditor can confirm authenticity instantly.
Inspector competency matrix
A single grid of every inspector, the methods they are certified for, and the expiry date — so job assignment never relies on a lapsed credential.
Bulk renewals & batch certificates
Select every credential expiring in a window and launch a renewal campaign, or print and send certificates in bulk — built for high-volume labs.
Non-conformance tracking
Failed inspections and defects are logged with type, severity, and follow-up action items through to closure — a complete quality record for audits.
Client self-service portal
Clients track their own inspection status and retrieve certificates and qualifications directly, so the lab is never the bottleneck for a status call.
How it works
Convert the sale order
Turn a confirmed sale order into an inspection work order with job details already filled in — no re-keying.
Inspect & report
Assign an inspector, run the method-specific report, and log any defect or non-conformance found on site.
Review & approve
A reviewer signs off before the work order can move to Approved, keeping duties separated and the audit trail complete.
Certify & hand off
The certificate is generated with a QR code; the client retrieves it from the portal or any auditor verifies it with no login.
