Decision Matrix — 8 Dimensions of Comparison

Comparison decomposed across 8 dimensions: (1) Code coverage (ASME / API / ISO / EN / NACE / AWS / IACS); (2) Inspector qualification — ASNT vs ISO 9712 vs PCN vs ACCP vs NAS 410 + EN 4179; (3) Method library breadth (UT, RT, MT, PT, ET, VT, PAUT, TOFD, IRT, AE, LT, LRUT, ECA); (4) Industry vertical fit; (5) Geographic delivery footprint; (6) Software integration surface (REST + webhook + ERP + SAP + Maximo + NetSuite); (7) Total Cost of Ownership (qualitative — pricing is region-specific, free quote); (8) Implementation timeline + onboarding effort.

Cost-Driver Decomposition (Qualitative)

Cost drivers (qualitative, no pricing): (a) licensing / subscription model — per-user vs per-asset vs per-inspection; (b) implementation services — phased rollout, data migration, integration scoping; (c) training + cert refresh — inspector cohort onboarding; (d) ongoing support — SLA tier, regional coverage hours, escalation pathway; (e) infrastructure — SaaS multi-tenant vs single-tenant vs on-prem; (f) hidden costs — module add-ons, API call limits, premium-support tier. Atlantis NDT delivers all-in transparent quote — affordable, accessible, fully customizable.

Use-Case Bands — Where Each Favours

Each option favours specific use-case bands: enterprise-scale single-asset (Maximo / SAP PM territory), inspection-contractor multi-customer (Atlantis ERP / Floodlight territory), small-team focused (lightweight CMMS), per-method specialised (proprietary instrument vendor tools). Atlantis NDT positions in the inspection-contractor + multi-customer band — inspection-native, code-aware, ASNT Level III-led implementation.
