About Novas QC

The industrial & TIC inspection division of Novas QC. Established 2016. 30+ full-time inspectors, 300+ partner-inspector network. Subcontractor to TÜV, SGS, Bureau Veritas, Applus+, Intertek, Moody.

Who We Are

Novas QC is the industrial & TIC inspection division of the Novas QC group. Founded in 2016, we provide independent third-party inspection services to global TIC bodies (TÜV Rheinland, TÜV SÜD, SGS, Bureau Veritas, Applus+, Intertek, Moody) and to overseas buyers / EPC quality teams in China.

We are a local subcontractor — not a TIC body. We provide the field witness, NDT, and reporting work that supports the certification process. Certifications (CE, PED, etc.) are issued by the engaging TIC body or by the buyer. Our inspection reports are factual work records, not certificates.

Our team operates across China with 30+ full-time inspectors and a 300+ partner-inspector network, covering all major industrial hubs within typically 48 hours of mobilization.

How We Work

Four Values, Not a Slogan

Every project on this site is delivered under four non-negotiable values — written down so you can hold us to them.

执标 Execute the Standard

Your ITP and MPS are the contract. We execute, we do not create. We obey, we do not adjudicate.

速应 48-Hour Mobilization

Predictability is the essence of trust. We answer inside your clock, not ours.

知止 Don't Touch Your Customer

Your end-customer is the boundary, not the opportunity. NDA + non-compete on file.

精技 API / NACE Capability

Inspectors hold API / ASME / NACE / CSWIP credentials. We decline what we cannot cover.

Geographic Coverage

Our Chinese inspectors cover all major industrial hubs:

  • Tier 1 (24-hr mobilization typical): Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Shandong, Guangdong
  • Tier 2 (48-hr typical): Hebei, Liaoning, Beijing, Tianjin, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Chongqing
  • Tier 3/4 (2-3 days): other provinces and remote sites
  • Offshore yards: covered (Shanghai, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Shandong)

Subcontractor Relationships

We work as a local subcontractor to:

  • TÜV Rheinland, TÜV SÜD, SGS, Bureau Veritas, Applus+, Intertek, Moody International
  • OEM buyers / EPC quality teams (direct contracts for inspection services)
  • Smaller TIC bodies and regional inspection firms seeking local Chinese inspectors

We do NOT issue CE marks, PED conformity certificates, or other regulatory approvals. These are issued by the engaging TIC body or by the buyer/manufacturer. Our role is to provide the local inspection work record that supports the certification process.

Group Structure

Novas QC is the industrial & TIC inspection division of the Novas QC group. The same parent brand runs a separate consumer-goods inspection division at www.novasqc.com (consumer-products, loading checks, supplier audits for European buyers) and a Russian-language site at www.novasqc.ru for the Russian market. Each division operates independently under the same brand.

Engagement Process

Languages & Communication

All reports are written in English. Our inspectors are conversational in Mandarin + English. For projects requiring other languages (Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, German, Russian), we coordinate via bilingual inspectors or partner firms.

Confidentiality & Documentation

  • NDA execution is standard before any client documents (drawings, ITPs, specifications) are shared.
  • Documents are stored on access-controlled systems.
  • Documents are used only for the contracted task — never reused across accounts.
  • Documents are returned or destroyed at engagement end per your instruction.
