The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (ATS FoC) helps clients comply with the ASTM E329 testing standard. This standard defines criteria for personnel, facilities, equipment, procedures, quality systems, records, and reporting, ensuring a consistent framework for evaluating agency competence.
When Is ASTM E329 Testing Required?
ASTM E329 is required when a construction project must verify the technical competence of an inspection or testing agency. Project specifications, building officials, engineers, or regulatory authorities may require compliance before services begin. The standard supports agency qualification for work involving concrete, structural steel, welding, bolting, soil, foundations, masonry, and other construction activities. Compliance with ASTM E329 assures clients and stakeholders that agencies deliver accurate, consistent, and technically sound results, and that testing and inspection activities meet established quality and professional standards.

We help concrete testing companies meet ASTM E329 requirements through concrete testing, quality systems, technical expertise, and guidance on ASTM, AASHTO, and ISO/IEC 17025 standards. The ATS FoC itself is accredited to ASTM E329 by A2LA and AASHTO. We provide construction material testing services using qualified personnel, appropriate equipment, documented procedures, and strong quality-control practices. Our team follows ASTM methods and project specifications, maintaining thorough documentation to ensure reliable results. By adhering to ASTM E329, we deliver comprehensive testing, accurate records, and dependable data for quality assurance, material evaluation, and project decision-making.
How Can ASTM E329 Compliance Support Construction Projects?
ASTM E329 helps project owners and construction professionals select agencies that deliver reliable inspection and testing results. Qualified agencies ensure that personnel, equipment, procedures, and quality systems support accurate evaluations. The standard provides objective criteria for agency qualification and helps identify technical resources for specific services. Partnering with a qualified testing organization strengthens quality assurance, documents material compliance, and supports informed decision-making throughout construction.
