Spotlight On: Arion’s Supplier Quality Surveillance (SQS) Program
Project success depends on safety requirements being met to achieve an outcome of zero injuries or accidents. Arion’s Supplier Quality Surveillance (SQS) program can help ensure your projects are as safe as possible. In addition to utilizing SQS internally to support our engineering and procurement services, we also provide direct inspection management and in-shop inspection support excellence to our clients. By executing proven best practices to ensure supplier compliance, we embody a main principle of our Performance pillar. Further, we draw on our People pillar in fostering an “all in” team mentality to form lasting, trusting relationships for the duration of the project and beyond.

Process Safety Management (PSM) Capabilities
In 2018, Arion initiated PSM program work for a major midstream client, performing work in six different regions across four states. After assessing the client’s needs, we worked together to define 21 Process Safety Information deliverables, then created documents or updated existing documents for our client’s facilities. Our innovative work processes allowed us to tailor deliverables to client requirements, and easily add or subtract deliverables from scope depending on facility needs. Keeping job assignments flexible enabled staff to hop on or off projects as needed, ensuring the best staffing fit for each area and project workload requirements.
