From joint list to dispatch, on one record.

One system for every role: the web in the office, the phone on the shop floor.

Pipesurf · Active Joints
Active Joints: every joint with its current phase, the role holding it and how long it has been there

The whole job, end to end

Every phase has an owner, a sign-off and a record.

Joint list→Staging→Fit-Up→Welding→PWHT→NDT and other tests→Hydrotest→Painting→Dispatch

Dashed phases are switched on per project. Fit-Up and Welding are always on.

Follow one spool through your yard

Eight joints, nine phases, one record. Hover a joint to see its history.

Nothing moves without a sign-off

Work reaches the yard only when it’s released, and moves on only when it’s approved.

  • ✓Staging: release joints to the yard in the batches you choose
  • ✓Doer, engineer, QC: every step signed by name
  • ✓Every rejection carries a reason, routed to the right crew
Pipesurf · Joint Staging
Joint Staging: the Production Engineer selects four joints and moves them to fit-up

Every joint carries its own history

Material, WPS, welders and test reports stay on the joint until it ships.

  • ✓Heat numbers per side, picked from a controlled list
  • ✓WPS plus process and welder for root, hot, fill and cap
  • ✓NDT and other tests, with reports attached to the right attempt
Pipesurf · Joint Details · SW139
Joint record: heat numbers on both sides at fit-up, then the WPS and the process and welder for every weld pass

See the whole yard without walking it

Where every joint is, who holds it and for how long, in joints and inch-dia.

  • ✓Active joints and spools with current holder and age
  • ✓Phase-wise completion by inch-dia
  • ✓Queue breakdown shows exactly where the work is stuck
Pipesurf · Project Progress
Pipesurf Project Progress Tracker: 36% complete, 1,999 inch-dia across 360 joints and 100 spools, with completion for every phase

Dispatch with the paperwork attached

Every spool is approved for dispatch, with its delivery note and packing list attached.

  • ✓One heat number list per project, by material grade
  • ✓Dispatch approval from a dedicated queue
  • ✓Delivery note and packing list on every spool, in bulk
Pipesurf · Heat Numbers
Heat Numbers: the project's heat number list, each tied to a material grade

Fits the contract, not the other way round

Every project is set up to its own specification, and can change while it runs.

  • Switch PWHT, NDT and other tests, hydrotest and painting on or off per project
  • Choose the PWHT route and the extra tests (hardness, impact, chemical, PMI, ferrite)
  • Add or drop a phase mid-job without losing work in progress
  • Absorb drawing revisions through approval
  • Pause a project and resume exactly where it stopped

Built for the office and the shop floor

Foremen work from their phones. Engineers, QC and Project Managers use both. Office roles work on the web.
