The NDE group of companies operate business management systems that standardize the key work processes for each NDE office and their appropriate HSE and ISO programs at the same time allowing each location the individual freedom to operate according to local conditions and requirements.
Most importantly NDE empowers our employees with the resources necessary to meet and exceed the company's and client's future expectations.

The NDE group is committed to providing its personnel with an injury-free work place as well as protecting our environment and that of the communities where we live and work.
The Health, Safety & Environmental program is simple - highly trained and motivated employees, combined with documented procedures and a proactive risk management reporting system.

All personnel will be indoctrinated into the NDE corporate policies as well as client specific safety policies when required by contract. All procedures, audit reports and findings will be maintained to assure compliance to the HSE procedure.
NDE will continue to provide the resources and manpower necessary to maintain a HSE conscious culture, one that encourages personnel to act in a safe and responsible manner.

NDE will continue to expand its position as a technological leader in the quality services industry in the following areas:

Our OMS (Operations Management System) has been developed to:

• Ensure that all NDE group offices operate using the same systems / tools to ensure the efficiency of our service to our clients.
• The OMS (Operations Management System) includes Client access to allow clients real time access to job status, time & expense information and reports.
• The OMS (Operations Management System) includes Inspector access to allow inspectors to access Assignment instructions and documentation directly from the NDE servers as well as allowing them to upload reports, time & expense details and to manage their itinerary in real time.

Our Project Management Tools (PMTools) has been developed to:
