Q_ISO Technology · Company Profile 2026

Awards at record highs,
engineers at record lows.
Q_ISO bridges the gap.

EPC-grade quality at offshore economics. For 25 years a plant piping-design partner — with patent-pending automation that measurably reduces revisions and rework — absorbing the design workload spikes of major EPCs.

01Executive Summary★ 30-SEC BRIEF

Q_ISO at a glance

Not just a design-manpower vendor.
Proven EPC references + offshore delivery + proprietary automation IP — as a single technology partner.

Positioning

Others sell man-hours; Q_ISO sells M/H + tooling

Where competitors bill man-hours (M/H), Q_ISO adds proprietary software automating revision, connectivity and MTO checks to structurally reduce errors and rework.

02Market Opportunity★ KEY

Why now

Awards at record highs, engineers at record lows — the gap is design-outsourcing demand.

① Award supercycle

  • 2025 Korea overseas construction $47.3B — 11-year high[1]
  • Saudi Aramco 85 projects over 3 years[2]
  • ADNOC $55B · Qatar North Field $29B[5]
GAP ↔ design-outsourcing demand Awards ▲ Talent ▼

Overlapping mega-projects × talent cliff → a proven external design partner + automation

② Talent cliff

  • Korea ship/plant 130K shortfall by 2027[3]
  • Global oil & gas avg. age 56, 45% over age 50[4]
  • design & engineering employment over 10 years +49% — demand is structurally expanding[6]

Why Now

With mega-projects overlapping, in-house teams alone cannot absorb the design peaks. Why even major EPCs open offshore design centers in India (Chennai·Mumbai) — Q_ISO already owns that structure in its own Manila center.[7]

03Value Proposition★ KEY

Why Q_ISO

"What major EPCs do in India, Q_ISO already does in its own Manila center."

04Automation Platform★ DIFFERENTIATOR

Proprietary automation platform — a moat built into delivery

25 years of piping-design know-how codified into software. The industry is document-centric → data-centric, and owners now require digital capability from their vendors.[9]

Before · manual
  • Revision reconciliation by eyeballing isometrics
  • Revision register kept by hand
  • Disconnections·open-ends checked visually
  • Material take-off cross-checked manually
  • → Errors surface at construction = stoppage·rework·delay
After · Q_ISO automation
  • Old/new PCF revision auto comparison + auto REV increment
  • connectivity dual-engine cross-verification
  • material change, line by line auto tally (7-sheet report)
  • 6-rule automated QC checks + quality scorecard
  • Shift error detection left to design: caught in 3D = one comment

Value of shifting error detection left — clash-check ROI case: $0.2M invested → $2.22M rework + $0.542M schedule savings (external benchmark)[10]

06Global Delivery★ KEY

Seoul × Manila — governed offshore delivery

The same India-GEC strategy as major EPCs — an SME that owns that structure itself. Offshoring is not a risk but a proven standard with client-owned deliverables and controlled security.

HQ · Seoul

Seoul HQ

  • Client interface · technical lead
  • Quality control · security governance
  • Final deliverable review
Offshore Design Center · Manila

Manila center

  • Offshore design center · elastic scaling
  • Cost edge · English proficiency
  • HQ-grade security regime
Benefit 1

Elastic to workload peaks

Ramps up to protect deadlines on concurrent mega-projects.

Benefit 2

Cost competitiveness

On Manila's mature O&G design ecosystem (JGC·Fluor, etc.).[8]

Benefit 3

IP · security governance

The client owns all deliverables; offshore data is governed under the same security discipline as HQ.
