FOREIGN STAMPS
FOREIGN STAMPS
(OP)
Hi. This is the first time I'll be posting. (Please be nice.
) I just hope you could help me out a bit. Our company provides engineering designs for different countries. Work flow goes: they give me the project, details & drawings, I do the structural analysis on the system, then I give it to them for submission to the client. Now there is this project in America, wherein the client requires an engineer's stamp on the structural report. Considering I'm from another country, should I still sign? Or it should be an American signing the report? I'm really confused, because I thought someone from the other end of the world should be checking/reviewing my work & then he signs. My understanding is that: that is the idea of outsourcing. Share me your thoughts. Please.

RE: FOREIGN STAMPS
My understanding is that in at least some jurisdictions having a local PE simply review analysis done by someone without PE in that jurisdiction (whether foreign or domestic) may not be technically adequate. The PE registered in the jurisdiction may actually need to be involved in performing the analysis not just reviewing the end product.
