Services
What IWS executes in your plant.
Fit-up & hull assembly
Steel-structure and hull fit-up within your scope: our fitters read the drawing, set up the assembly and hand it to our welders ready to tack.
Complete work packages
Our supervisor, welders, fitters and grinders execute the whole package in a rented area inside your plant. You pay per kilogram or tonne against acceptance protocols.
Quality & documentation
With each work package you receive welder qualification records, the welding map and NDT coordination for your QA department.
Posting compliance (A1)
For work abroad, IWS arranges the A1 certificates, posting notifications and insurance, and prepares the documents host-country inspectors ask for.
Projects
Work of this kind, delivered for names you know.
The client keeps its procedures, inspection and schedule; IWS executes the welding and fit-up scope with its own crews. Three programmes our crews work in today.
Transition pieces and secondary steel for offshore wind
Our client builds the transition pieces and jackets that carry offshore wind turbines, including foundations for the first Polish offshore wind farms in the Baltic. IWS crews execute welding packages inside this programme to the client’s qualified procedures: heavy-plate butt and fillet welds, secondary steel, boat landings and platforms, under third-party inspection.
Crane portals, conveyors and stacker-reclaimer steel
Our client builds hoisting and bulk-handling equipment. IWS crews weld and fit box girders, portal legs, conveyor bridges and machined weldments within this programme, working to the client’s WPS and its certified quality system.
Hull blocks, sections and outfitting steel
At the yard on the Baltic coast, IWS crews weld and fit hull sections and blocks — double bottoms, side shells, bulkheads and decks — plus foundations and outfitting steel, in all positions and to classification-society rules. Hull fitters, the trade every yard in Europe is short of, are a core IWS speciality.
Client programmes are described from the clients’ own public material; IWS names a client only with its written consent. Reference contacts on request.

About IWS
A Polish outsourcing company for welding and fit-up scopes.
IWS (International Welding Services) is a Polish outsourcing company. We execute welding and fit-up scopes in a rented area inside your plant: our crews and supervisor, your drawings, procedures and inspection. You pay per kilogram or tonne against acceptance protocols. We do not manufacture in our own name; the product, the certificates and the client relationship stay yours.
Our crews arrive qualified to your requirements, with their A1 forms and a coordinator who speaks your language. You keep your procedures, inspection and schedule, and you hand us defined scopes when your order book needs extra capacity.
- Welders qualified and tested to your WPS requirements
- We handle posting: A1, insurance, travel and housing
- One coordinator, weekly progress reports, scope changes agreed in writing
Questions from procurement
The answers your buyer will ask for first.
How fast can you start on a scope?
A first proposal within two working days of receiving drawings, standard, processes and positions. Mobilising a crew posted with A1 certificates typically takes two to four weeks; crews already working in Poland can start sooner.
Which welding qualifications do your welders hold?
Every welder in our crews carries a valid EN ISO 9606-1 certificate for the process (111, 135/136, 141, 121, 114), material group and position your WPS requires. On request we run a test weld to your WPS before mobilisation and send you the record.
Who contracts the welders, and who handles posting paperwork?
IWS contracts its welders and fitters directly — they never work for you. A1 certificates, insurance, travel, accommodation and PPE are organised by IWS, and the crew arrives with the documents host-country inspections ask for. You receive one invoice, for accepted work.
How do you price?
Per kilogram or tonne of welded steel accepted, against a signed acceptance protocol. You pay for the accepted result, not for attendance — we do not sell hours or people.
Can the scope or schedule change during the project?
Yes. Send us the new dates or the added scope; our coordinator re-plans our crew and confirms the change to the work package in writing, usually within a week. One IWS coordinator stays your single point of contact for progress, NDT results and acceptance.
Do you manufacture anything yourselves?
No. IWS is an outsourcing company: we rent an area inside your plant, yard or site, and our welders and fitters execute your scope there under our own supervisor, to your drawings, WPS and inspection. You accept the work by protocol and we invoice by kilogram or tonne. Nothing is fabricated in IWS’s name, so your quality certificates and your client relationship stay entirely yours.
Do you work under our quality system?
Always. We weld to your qualified procedures and your inspection plan; our own supervisor directs our crew, in coordination with your responsible welding coordinator, and we structure our records to fit your EN ISO 3834 / EN 1090 / class system.
