American Boiler Inspection Service, Inc.

American Boiler Inspection Service, Inc., headquartered in Richmond, Virginia, operates as a self-certified small disadvantaged business providing boiler and pressure-vessel inspection services to federal agencies as a prime contractor.

American Boiler Inspection Service delivers specialized boiler inspection, hydrostatic pressure testing, and steam and hot water system evaluations performed in compliance with American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and National Board Inspection Code (NBIC) standards.
