Safety Solutions
In 2021, Professional Engineering Associates (PEA) recognized a significant need for solutions to a variety of safety issues that confront our industrial and manufacturing clientele. Safety concerns such as fall protection and arc flash have become front and center facing nearly all of PEA’s clients. In response to this need, PEA has created a new division that is exclusively focused on safety topics. Currently, this new group of specialized individuals are focused on the evaluation, design, installation, training, and maintenance of fall protection systems and their anchorage to new or existing structural elements. Although the division began with a focus in fall protection, it is expanding to encompass Safety, Health, and Environmental service areas that could impact our clients.
PEA not only has an exceptional staff of safety professionals that are versed with 20+ years of OSHA and EPA compliance topics, our engineering expertise working within the industrial and manufacturing markets allows us to develop cost effective solutions with existing facilities to quickly bring our clients within compliance. PEA doesn’t need to find outside expertise, we have it all in-house. One-stop solutions for our diverse clients.
