With over 30 years of experience, Ms. Boisvert specializes in material behavior, corrosion, degradation, aging, inspection techniques and maintenance programs. She has performed numerous failure analyses and degradation studies. She was responsible for Asset Management at the CEZinc plant in Valleyfield and as a materials engineer at the CCR Refinery in Montreal. It was at these two plants, which are respectively 90 and 60 years old, that Sophie developed and implemented an asset inspection, integrity study and durability program.

In 2014, Sophie joined the engineering consulting ranks at Norda Stelo and set up a group of experts whose objective is to provide clients with expertise to help them maintain the technical reliability, integrity, and proper functioning of physical assets (production, infrastructure) to maximize their availability and performance-while ensuring regulatory compliance and environmental protection.

Also at Norda Stelo, Ms. Boisvert was named vice president of the Resources and Industry market in 2018. In 2021, she was named vice president of Norda Stelo Solutions, leading the development of Stelar.

"Industries are in dire need of technological tools to manage their assets. The world is changing, the importance of ESG practices is becoming paramount and we now have solutions for structured data collection, analysis, and visualization. These intelligent decision support solutions will enable better investment and risk management." - Sophie Boisvert
