How we work with you
A working day with your Penang team
Nothing about this is improvised. Penang is 2 h 30 m ahead of our engineering desk (UTC+05:30), so we run a fixed daily rhythm around your working hours in Penang.
Clock positions use standard time for Penang; daylight saving shifts the band by one hour for part of the year.
5 h 30 m
Shared hours 12:00–17:30, Penang time

Sector focus
Industries & project types in Penang
Most Penang enquiries come from these four sectors — and from the fabricators and EPCs serving them.
Heavy, abrasive-duty structures built far from anywhere — so the drawings have to be right first time.
- Conveyor galleries and trestles
- Transfer towers and chutes
- Silos, bins and hoppers
- Crusher and mill building steel
Cryogenic service, heavy modularisation and the documentation trail an LNG EPC expects.
- Cryogenic stress and support design
- Modularised process racks
- Tank appurtenances and access steel
- Jetty and loading-arm structures
Floating and fixed marine assets where weight control and corrosion allowance are part of the design brief.
- FPSO module steelwork
- Jetty, dolphin and mooring structures
- Marine-grade skid packages
- Transport and lift analysis
Building steelwork where architectural coordination and erection sequence matter as much as the member sizes.
- Office and retail steel frames
- Atrium and façade support steel
- Connection design and bolt lists
- Federated BIM model reviews
Commercial & compliance
Contracting, IP and invoicing for Penang, Malaysia
Engineering is the easy part of an offshore engagement — the contract, the IP and the invoice are what stall it. Here is how we set those up for Penang, Malaysia clients.
Fixed-price package
Quote in 24 h · 2–4 milestonesBest for: A defined scope — one building, one skid, one vessel
Lump sum against an agreed drawing and tonnage list. Milestone invoicing, and change orders only for scope you approve in writing.
Rate-based delivery
Weekly reporting · monthly invoiceBest for: Scope that is still moving
Per-drawing, per-tonne or per-hour rates fixed up front, with a weekly burn and progress report so the invoice never surprises you.
Dedicated engineers (ODC)
Monthly per seat · 1-month noticeBest for: A continuous workload across many projects
Named engineers reserved for you each month, working in your folder structure, templates and drawing standards under your team lead.
The paperwork, up front
Working with SES from Malaysia
- Invoicing currency
- MYR or USD, fixed at contract stage
- Payment terms
- Milestone or monthly invoicing, net 30 days from invoice
- Contract vehicle
- NDA, then a master services agreement with a priced scope schedule per package
- IP & ownership
- Models, drawings, calculations and native files transfer to you on final payment
- Cross-border paperwork
- Tax-residency and invoice documentation supplied for Malaysia finance and treaty relief
- Insurance
- Professional indemnity cover; certificate issued with the proposal on request
Local practice: Documentation is built for AS/NZS fabrication practice and for principal-contractor ITP, hold-point and witness-point regimes.
Confidentiality, IP & data security
- Mutual NDA signed before drawings are exchanged — usually inside one working day.
- All models, drawings, calculations and native files become your property on final payment.
- Project data lives in access-controlled folders; only the named team on your job can open them.
- No sub-contracting of your scope to a third party without your written consent.
- Every deliverable is produced on genuine licensed software, so your submission chain stays clean.
- Transfers over your portal, SharePoint, or our encrypted link — whichever your IT policy allows.
