In a supervision company, should the term for \"supervision\" be consulting or supervising? The term \"supervision company\" is also a term with Chinese characteristics; in my opinion, its functions are similar to those of professional consulting firms abroad, but **there do indeed exist so-called consulting companies as well. I really want to use the term “consulting,” but I’m afraid it might cause confusion with the so-called consulting firms in China. How would you translate this term? Is there any standard approach for using it? I welcome everyone’s opinions on this. :Q
I think it’s also consulting
I work in a consulting company. We do not engage in \"supervision\" work. As far as I understand, \"supervision\" companies monitor the progress and quality of project execution on behalf of their clients.
At the project construction site, the person in charge of supervision by the supervision company is called a supervisor. ---------------FYI
Chief Supervision Engineer, Chief Engineering Supervisor, Beijing BPEC Construction Supervision Co., Beijing Bipeike Engineering Construction Supervision Company – this is for the Hainan Petrochemical project
If it refers to the position of “supervisor”: Supervisor. If it refers to the business of supervision: Supervision Consulting or Consultant, which mainly denotes the business or position of engineering consulting advisor
According to gPROMS, a \"supervision\" company monitors the progress and quality of project execution on behalf of its clients. I would like to ask those who are familiar with this field, whether foreigners working on projects also need similar supervision companies to oversee the progress and quality of project implementation on behalf of the clients or users
Abroad, for the projects I’ve been involved in, usually the owner themselves or a Project Manager or Inspector is hired to oversee the project’s progress and quality control; For large-scale projects, specialized companies are hired to handle Project Management and Supervision. If you search for “Project Supervision” on Google, you can find some large engineering companies that offer such Project Supervision services. There are many such companies that also often carry out consulting work (providing technical consultation services related to engineering design, specifications, construction, operation, etc.), and perhaps this is why some people mix together the two distinct services of project supervision and consulting.
It should be: Supervision
I have worked on projects abroad, where the supervisors were called CONSULTANTS – they were really impressive.
Supervising might be better
