Role Overview
TPI Coordinators manage the entire third-party inspection process — scheduling inspections with agencies like DNV, SGS, Bureau Veritas, and Lloyds, preparing documentation packages, and ensuring every inspection is witnessed at the right stage. You’re the link between the fabrication/construction team and the external inspection body. Poor TPI coordination causes project delays (missed inspections = hold-up in work progression). Metro deploys TPI coordinators to projects where inspection volume and complexity demand dedicated coordination.
Key Responsibilities
- Schedule and coordinate all third-party inspections with agencies (DNV, SGS, BV, Lloyds, IRClass)
- Prepare and submit inspection request notices (IRN) with supporting documentation
- Ensure all quality documents (MTCs, WPS/PQR, NDT reports) are ready before TPI visits
- Attend and facilitate TPI inspections, resolving queries on behalf of the project team
- Track inspection status and maintain the inspection log with pass/fail records
- Coordinate with fabrication, erection, and QA/QC teams to align inspection hold points with work progress
- Manage TPI-related non-conformances and ensure timely closure
Required Qualifications & Certifications
- B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical or relevant engineering discipline
- 5–12 years of experience in QA/QC or TPI coordination at EPC or fabrication projects
- Experience working with international TPI agencies (DNV, SGS, Bureau Veritas, Lloyds)
- Strong documentation management and coordination skills
- Knowledge of ITP, MTR, and quality dossier preparation
- Familiarity with ASME, API, and EN inspection standards
