According to Article 2 of Decree 06/2021/ND-CP, construction inspection is the activity of checking, evaluating the quality or cause of damage, value, useful life, and other technical parameters of construction products, building components, or construction works through observation, testing combined with calculation and analysis.

Selection of inspection organizations must meet the following requirements:

- Comply with the regulatory requirements, have a construction qualification certificate, and have experience in the field of construction quality inspection.

- The owner or manager or user of the construction project is responsible for paying the inspection costs during the exploitation and use period.

- In the case of inspection to resolve disputes, if the inspection results prove that the fault belongs to the responsibility of any organizations or individuals involved, then these organizations or individuals must bear the corresponding inspection costs for the fault they caused.

Therefore, when it is necessary to inspect the quality of a construction project, in addition to choosing a unit that ensures the capacity according to the current regulations, customers should choose an inspection organization that is independent in terms of law and finance to ensure transparent and objective results. This is to ensure the following three criteria:

a. Legality

- According to point e, clause 2, Article 112 of the Construction Law No. 50/2014/QH13, dated June 18, 2014, the investor has the obligation to hire a consulting organization with sufficient construction operation capacity to inspect the quality of the work when necessary. For more information, please refer to the Construction Law on the Construction Ministry's website.

- According to clause 6, Article 34 of Decree 06/2021/ND-CP, the owner or manager or user of the work must hire an organization with sufficient capacity to carry out in case the work requires monitoring or must be inspected for quality. For more information, please refer to this decree on the Construction Ministry's website.

b. Objectivity and honesty

- Working with professional inspection units with many years of experience, good reputation and recognized by many customers in the market will bring you the quickest, most honest and objective inspection results.

c. Professionalism

- According to Article 75 of the Construction Inspection Profession Conditions and Article 97 of the Construction Inspection Organization Capacity Conditions of Decree No. 15/2021/ND-CP dated March 3, 2021, inspection organizations need to be recognized by the Ministry of Construction for their inspection capacity both for organizations and individuals performing inspection work. This ensures that the inspection process takes place according to the correct process, bringing the most accurate and economical results. For more information, please refer to this decree on the Construction Ministry's website.

- The possession of a LAS construction laboratory is a very important factor for a professional inspection unit, ensuring the control of the results of material testing, economics, and execution time.
