Design basis

Codes, standards & units for Ireland

Drawings that arrive in the wrong convention cost days on the shop floor. Here is exactly what we design and draft to for Ireland.

How we work with you

A working day with your Ireland team

Nothing about this is improvised. Ireland is 5 h 30 m behind our engineering desk (UTC+05:30), so we run a fixed daily rhythm around your working hours in Ireland.

Your day in IrelandOur engineering deskExtended deskShared hours

Clock positions use standard time for Ireland; daylight saving shifts the band by one hour for part of the year.

Review rhythm

Twice weekly

A 30-minute model walkthrough on screen, plus a written progress log

  1. 09:00

    1. Overnight drop is waiting

    Models, drawings and calculation updates produced while Ireland was closed are already in the shared folder when your day starts.

  2. 09:00–12:30

    2. Live window

    Screen-share model walkthroughs, connection decisions and RFI closeout — with the engineer who did the work, not an account manager.

  3. 17:30

    3. You hand off

    Mark up the drawings, raise RFIs and set the next priority before you log off. The queue is picked up at the start of our next shift.

  4. Next 09:00

    4. Revisions back

    Comments closed, revision clouds in place and the next issue in your folder before the first Ireland meeting of the day.

Sector focus

Industries & project types in Ireland

The work that reaches us from Ireland clusters around four sectors. These are the packages we are asked for most.

01

Offshore

Sector page

Topsides and marine structures designed for installation loads, not just in-place loads.

  • Topside modules and deck frames
  • Jacket and brace detailing
  • Lifting and seafastening calculations
  • Offshore skids to API RP 2A
02

Energy Transition

Sector page

Hydrogen, storage and carbon-capture packages — new equipment, familiar codes, tight programmes.

  • Hydrogen and biogas skid packages
  • Battery storage and converter steel
  • Wind and solar support structures
  • Carbon-capture equipment design

Municipal and industrial water assets combining tankage, access steel and process piping.

  • API 650 / AWWA tank design
  • Clarifier bridges and walkways
  • Treatment-plant piping and isometrics
  • Filter and dosing skids
04

Industrial

Sector page

Production and logistics facilities where tonnage economy and erection speed decide the bid.

  • PEB and heavy industrial sheds
  • Crane gantries and runway beams
  • Mezzanines, platforms and stairs
  • Equipment support structures

Commercial & compliance

Contracting, IP and invoicing for Ireland

Engineering is the easy part of an offshore engagement — the contract, the IP and the invoice are what stall it. Here is how we set those up for Ireland clients.

Fixed-price package

Quote in 24 h · 2–4 milestones

Best for: A defined scope — one building, one skid, one vessel

Lump sum against an agreed drawing and tonnage list. Milestone invoicing, and change orders only for scope you approve in writing.

Rate-based delivery

Weekly reporting · monthly invoice

Best for: Scope that is still moving

Per-drawing, per-tonne or per-hour rates fixed up front, with a weekly burn and progress report so the invoice never surprises you.

Dedicated engineers (ODC)

Monthly per seat · 1-month notice

Best for: A continuous workload across many projects

Named engineers reserved for you each month, working in your folder structure, templates and drawing standards under your team lead.

The paperwork, up front

Working with SES from Ireland

Invoicing currency
EUR or USD, fixed at contract stage
Payment terms
Milestone or monthly invoicing, net 30 days from invoice
Contract vehicle
NDA, then a master services agreement with a priced scope schedule per package
IP & ownership
Models, drawings, calculations and native files transfer to you on final payment
Cross-border paperwork
Tax-residency and invoice documentation supplied for Ireland finance and treaty relief
Insurance
Professional indemnity cover; certificate issued with the proposal on request

Local practice: Deliverables suit EN 1090 factory production control and the CE / UKCA documentation chain, and calculations are issued in a form your checking engineer or notified body can audit line by line.

Confidentiality, IP & data security

  • Mutual NDA signed before drawings are exchanged — usually inside one working day.
  • All models, drawings, calculations and native files become your property on final payment.
  • Project data lives in access-controlled folders; only the named team on your job can open them.
  • No sub-contracting of your scope to a third party without your written consent.
  • Every deliverable is produced on genuine licensed software, so your submission chain stays clean.
  • Transfers over your portal, SharePoint, or our encrypted link — whichever your IT policy allows.

Coverage

Delivered everywhere in Ireland

We work remotely, so there is no travel premium and no gap in coverage between Ireland's industrial centres.

  • Work is delivered remotely from our engineering office: a 3–5 hour working-day overlap plus next-morning deliveries.
  • No travel premium, no minimum project size, and the same senior review on every package.

Cities we serve across Ireland

Each has its own page with the same code basis and delivery rhythm.

Neighbouring UK & Europe markets
