From bridges and power plants to vehicles and medical devices, engineering is the foundation for modern life. In honor of National Engineers Week, February 16 – 22, 2025, Industrial Inspection & Analysis (IIA) salutes the engineering profession and the many talented engineers on our team.
After placing an order for a key piece of large equipment, a major plastic recycling company in Canada realized too late that the new machine would not quite fit in its planned location. With decades of structural engineering experience, Industrial Inspection & Analysis (IIA) was called in to remedy the unusual situation.
In 2024 and 2025, major changes to Ontario tower crane safety regulations (O.Reg.213/91) took effect.
In 2024, Industrial Inspection & Analysis (IIA) achieved a perfect TRIR of ZERO. This impressive achievement improves upon an already low score of 0.49 in 2023 and continues several years of low TRIRs.
Is your project in the development stage?
When you need quick feedback on the overall part to determine its accuracy to the design, a 3D scan may be the best option. A full first article inspection (FAI) or even a partial dimensional inspection may be more than is necessary when performing an initial validation.
When it comes to our own health, most of us understand the need to occasionally offer up an arm for a routine blood test. The hope is to catch potential health issues in the early stages and ultimately live a long and healthy life.
Kova Engineering Ltd.’s story began in 1989 in Edmonton, Alberta with three founding members. We have been providing exceptional Engineering and Inspection services for over 30 years which has allowed us to become the leader in our industry.

From medical devices to baby monitors, today’s electronics market includes a wide range of smart products that communicate over networks. Along with enormous benefits, these products present a range of security challenges.
Whatever your industry, success depends upon the safety and integrity of materials, parts, components, and equipment. Defects that go undetected could lead to early replacement, costly repairs or, in worst-case scenarios, dangerous conditions or failures. Over the past century, non-destructive testing has emerged as a valuable tool to bring hidden defects to light.
