ATSER’s research team has devoted years of study into the processes utilized in engineering and construction.  Our studies have resulted in many U.S. Patents; most of which involve automating the construction inspection and testing area.  Our patented and unique quality management tools enable the customer to statistically analyze real-time lab and field data to determine material acceptance criteria quickly and effectively.  Real-time information reduces the potential for disruption of the orderly progress of work and minimizes the occurrence of management and rework. 

So far, ATSER has been awarded ten (10) U.S. Patents and currently has ten (10) additional U.S. Patents pending.
