In Brazil, every engineering service must be registered through an ART (Anotação de Responsabilidade Técnica) with CREA. This is the legal document that certifies the engineer's responsibility for the work. Reports without ART have no legal value and will not be accepted by regulatory authorities, insurance companies, or courts.
We operate across the entire Brazilian territory — all 26 states plus the Federal District.
Yes. Brazilian law requires that engineering inspections, technical reports, and compliance certificates be issued by a professional registered with CREA (Regional Council of Engineering and Agronomy). Foreign engineering licenses are not recognized in Brazil. Proton Engineering is fully CREA-registered and issues ART-backed reports accepted by all regulatory bodies.
ART (Anotação de Responsabilidade Técnica) is a mandatory technical responsibility certificate issued through CREA for every engineering service performed in Brazil. It legally binds the engineer to the work and is required for regulatory compliance, insurance claims, and legal proceedings. Every Proton report includes an ART.
Yes. We provide full bilingual support — all communication, reports, and documentation can be delivered in English. Technical reports are available in both English and Portuguese to satisfy local regulatory bodies and your international headquarters simultaneously.
We provide services across all 26 Brazilian states plus the Federal District (Brasília). Our headquarters are in Goiânia (GO), with regional presence in São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Porto Alegre, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília, and Ibitinga.
Key regulations include: NR-12 (Machinery Safety, similar to ISO 12100/OSHA), NR-13 (Boilers & Pressure Vessels, similar to ASME BPVC), NR-10 (Electrical Safety), NR-35 (Heights), Lei 13.589/2018 (HVAC/PMOC, similar to ASHRAE 62.1), and ABNT NBR 16.899 (Elevator Safety, similar to EN 81-20/50).
We provide detailed proposals with fixed pricing based on scope, location, and complexity. No hidden fees. We can work with purchase orders, international wire transfers, or other payment methods your procurement department requires. Invoices can be issued in English with USD or EUR reference values.
Absolutely. We regularly execute multi-site projects spanning multiple states. We coordinate logistics, scheduling, and reporting centrally, delivering consolidated reports for all locations. This is common for multinational companies with facilities across Brazil.
CREA (Conselho Regional de Engenharia e Agronomia) is the mandatory professional licensing body for engineers in Brazil — similar to a state PE license in the US or CEng in the UK. Brazilian law requires that all engineering activities be performed by CREA-registered professionals. Foreign engineers cannot practice in Brazil without CREA registration, which requires degree validation (a lengthy process). Working with a local CREA-registered engineer is the practical and legal solution.
Typical mobilization is 3-5 business days for our headquarters region (Goiás/DF) and 5-10 business days for other states. For urgent situations, we can often accelerate timelines. Remote preliminary assessments can begin within 24 hours.
Yes. Our reports are structured to satisfy both Brazilian regulatory requirements and international audit standards. We cross-reference Brazilian norms (NRs, ABNT) with their international equivalents (ISO, ASME, ASHRAE, EN) so your compliance team can easily validate them against your global standards.
