Process Safety Management

istock_000004499723xsmallWe understand the complexity that surrounds maintaining compliance with OSHA’s Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals (PSM) Standards (29 CFR 1910.119) and EPA’s Risk Management Program (RMP) rule (40 CFR Part 68).

Compliance of these regulations can minimize but don’t always guarantee loss.  That’s why we offer a wide spectrum of specialized techniques to prevent loss of valuable assets such as life, environment, and equipment during operational activities.  Proactive initiatives are imperative for preventing catastrophic incidents, costly citations and litigation expenses.

Our expert PSM engineering services assist facilities during all phases of operation: design, construction, maintenance, pre-startup and everyday operability assurance.  Process Safety Management techniques we utilize include:

  • Process Safety Engineering Consulting
