“Having concerns and not fully understanding the requirements associated with our Plant’s PSM Compliance Audit Program and Process, my management team hired CF Technical Services' Integrity/Compliance Group. They walked me through the regulatory requirements in documenting all PSM Program Elements from start to finish. I never expected them to sit side-by-side with me and make sure I not only understood what was expected of me (my Roles and Responsibilities), but also completed and closed all identified Action Items and deficiencies. We passed our PSM Compliance Audit with 'No Findings' and one (1) minor recommendation. I am in a much better position now because of them.”
