What TJ Inspection, Inc. does

TJ Inspection, Inc. is a private professional services firm headquartered in Plano, Texas, that provides inspection, auditing, and related technical services to midstream oil and gas operators across the United States. Founded in 2005 by CEO Tricia Junghanns, the company operates additional offices in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and Richardson, Texas and employs 251–500 people. Its stated positioning is built around a 'led by inspectors' operating concept, with founder and field-staff experience positioned as the firm's primary differentiator across service delivery.

The company's service portfolio spans eight product lines: transmission, distribution, integrity, plant and facility, and gathering pipeline inspection; Real-Time Auditing (a proprietary daily documentation process developed in 2015) plus DOT/PHMSA/state regulatory compliance auditing; data analytics for scheduling and forecasting; welder and poly fusion qualifications; an accredited Training Center with an in-house learning management system; GPS/GIS mapping and 3D point-cloud scanning using Trimble R12i, TSC7, and SX12 equipment; LocusView platform support services; and HSD (Hardness, Strength, and Ductility) testing using MMT's HSD 8000 testers to meet DOT §192.607 and PHMSA Mega Rule requirements. Services are delivered using advanced non-destructive testing methods including phased array ultrasonics, Creaform, and Hydroform technologies.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services contracts sold via direct enterprise field sales and relationship-based business development. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based, customized to client requirements. The customer base consists of oil and gas pipeline operators (transmission, distribution, gathering) and plant and facility operators, with no customer logos publicly disclosed. The company maintains compliance credentials spanning OSHA, PHMSA, EPA, DOT, all state regulatory commissions, and ISNetworld. The TJ Training Center operates as a sub-brand delivering operator qualifications, welding inspection, poly fusion inspection, and Clock Spring certification across instructor-led, mobile, and LMS-based formats.
