Product-focused structural compliance for manufacturers of critical equipment.

Our approach

Product-Focused Structural Compliance

Equipment and components comprise most of the cost of modern facilities. When they fail, buildings are unusable, power must be generated elsewhere, and wastewater goes untreated.

In short, bad things happen.

At Pre, we bring Structural Engineering back to the manufacturer, where products are fashioned from Pre-concept to certification and sale. We formed Pre Compliance to assess and certify products for structural conformance with a manufacturer-oriented approach.
