Engineering & Project Services

We design, validate and supervise works on buildings, plants and production processes. One technical counterpart from feasibility study to final testing.

What we do

IAT's Engineering unit works across civil, mechanical, electrical, environmental and instrumentation disciplines. We develop design at every stage — feasibility, basic, detailed — and follow it through with project management, works supervision and safety coordination.

Every project is set up to be approvable, buildable and verifiable: regulatory compliance is part of the design, not a downstream formality.

The problems we address

  • 01

    “I need to build or modernise a plant and want a design that is approvable and buildable, without surprises on site.”

  • 02

    “I have several contractors and a tight schedule: I need someone to coordinate, control costs and be accountable for results.”

  • 03

    “An in-service component shows signs of degradation and I must decide whether to repair, replace or keep operating.”

  • 04

    “I must prepare a specification or estimate for a tender and want it to be technically sound.”

How IAT works

  • Measure before deciding: surveys, diagnostics and real data underpin every design.
  • One counterpart to design, permit, supervise and commission.
  • IAT's safety, fire, radiation-protection and environmental expertise is integrated from concept stage.

Regulatory framework

  • Italian Legislative Decree 36/2023 — Public Contracts Code (design stages)
  • Ministerial Decree 17/01/2018 — Italian Technical Standards for Construction
  • Legislative Decree 81/2008, Title IV — temporary and mobile construction sites
  • Applicable CEI and UNI plant standards
