Win large-ticket EPC and process plant orders from L&T, Thermax, and BHEL.
EC OneX helps heavy fabrication shops — pressure vessel manufacturers, structural welding units, and hydraulic ram fabricators — build verified capability profiles, respond to EPC tenders, and track large-value project pipelines with precision.
The real challenges facing Heavy Engineering & Fabrication manufacturers today
These aren't generic problems — they are specific, structural bottlenecks that erode margins and stunt growth across the Pressure Vessels, Structures & Welding value chain.
No Digital Presence for Large EPC Buyers
EPC companies like L&T, Thermax, and BHEL increasingly vet heavy fabricators through digital pre-qualification — shops without verified profiles are excluded from tender short-lists before a single conversation happens.
Complex Weld Procedure and PQR Documentation
Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS), Procedure Qualification Records (PQR), and welder qualification certificates must be maintained per ASME, AWS, or IS standards — a documentation burden that consumes quality teams.
Large Project Cash Flow Gaps
Heavy fabrication projects run 6–24 months. Without structured milestone billing, advance tracking, and automated invoice reminders, receivable gaps create working capital crises mid-project.
Slow RFQ Turnaround on Complex Fabrications
Quoting pressure vessels (ASME Section VIII), heat exchangers, or structural steel fabrications requires checking plate inventory, weld consumable costs, and NDT subcontractor rates — a multi-day manual exercise.
Missing from Government Infrastructure Tenders
NTPC, ONGC, and power plant infrastructure projects require empanelled heavy fabricators. The empanelment process is document-heavy, opaque, and renewal-intensive — most SME shops miss the window.
No Visibility into Material Price Escalation Clauses
Structural steel, SS plates, and alloy pipe prices fluctuate significantly. Without systematic price escalation tracking, heavy fabricators absorb margin erosion silently over long project timelines.

Before EC OneX vs After
Measurable operational transformation for Heavy Engineering & Fabrication manufacturers.
“Our pre-qualification document submission to L&T EPC now takes 2 hours instead of 2 weeks. We've already been shortlisted for two project tenders we would have missed before EC OneX.”
