Why become a Contractor Assistance Program subscriber?
PEC/Premier's Contractor Assistance Program (CAP) is designed to help the contractor meet industry expectations.  By subscribing to the Contractor Assistance Program, we enable you to evaluate your company's safety program, identifying your strengths and weaknesses, while giving you a snapshot of how the Operators view your program.  CAP then helps you focus on solutions to any weaknesses found; thus greatly improving the Operator's view of your company's safety program and possibly leading to increased business and the overall profitability of your company.

EVALUATION BENEFITS — Where are you?
These three SSQ evaluation benefits are the linchpin of the Contractor Assistance Program.  Because if you do not know where you are, how can you get to where you want to go?  (Click on the benefits below to expand them.)

    CAP Report Card — See your generic SSQ score!
This is NOT your Operator score — it is not shared with the Operators.  Each Operator builds their own individual scoring system for use with their Contractors.  We cannot show you their score but our CAP Report Card is the next best thing.  Your CAP Report Card grade is an average score for your own internal use.  It is designed to provide a 'typical' SSQ score for your company which will enable you to determine how most Operators evaluate your safety program.  This invaluable data can reveal your company's strengths and weaknesses in your overall safety program.  

    Industry Comparison Report: TRIR — Compare your TRIR to your peers!
Many Operators pay particular attention to a Contractor's Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR).   This CAP benefit allows you to compare your company's TRIR as recorded in your SSQ against the actual TRIR data from other companies.  The Industry Comparison Report shows this comparison for all services you have listed in your SSQ.  This is done anonymously.  You can now compare your company with your competition!

    Summary Report — Review a snapshot report of your SSQ.
Look at the same snapshot report of your company's SSQ data that the Operators can view.  Instead of looking at the entire SSQ report made up of 25+ pages of data, you only need to glance at two.  Our Summary Report condenses your data down to the most important aspects of your safety program.  This is the data with which the Operators are most concerned.  This saves you a tremendous amount of time and money.

SOLUTION BENEFITS — Helping to get you where you want to be.
We desire to help you get your company where you want it to be.  The Contractor Assistance Program was designed specifically to assist you, the contractor, in achieving your safety program goals.  Below are some of the CAP benefits that can help you accomplish this.   (Click on the benefits below to expand them.)

Expand/Collapse All

    Consulting Assistance — Free and discounted rate consulting services.
PEC/Premier Safety Management offers professional QEHS consulting to CAP subscribers at a discounted rate.  Also included with your CAP subscription is one free hour of our professional QEHS consulting services via phone.  We want you to call us with your safety questions.  This is a $150.00 value!  For example, you could use this free one hour consulting to discuss ways of correcting any weaknesses discovered in your CAP Report Card or Industry Comparison Report.  Later, discounted consulting and audits can help make your company pro-active in preventing future problems, thus keeping your company on a positive track.

    Safety Meeting Assistance — Monthly safety meetings emailed to you.
As you know, some Operators require their Contractors to conduct periodic 'tailgate' safety meetings.  We will save your company time, money, and energy by assisting your company with their safety meetings.  As a CAP subscriber, we automatically email you monthly PDF documents that you can use as tools in conducting periodic safety meeting with your employees.  Therefore, you do not have to go out and develop these materials.  We provide presentations, test questions, sign-in sheets, etc., so all you have to do is conduct the meeting and file it.  If you are audited, you can be confident that this Operator requirement has been fulfilled.  Estimated value $345.00.

    Advanced Training Tracker — Manage all your employees training records.
As a CAP subscriber you will get a free subscription to PEC's new Advanced Training Tracker.  You will be able to track not only your employee's PEC training but all of their training, including in-house training.  Create a training needs matrix and compare it to that of participating Operators.  Click here for a complete list of the Advanced Training Tracker features.

    Training Discounts — Receive discounts on classes and materials.
As a CAP subscriber, you receive discounts on training materials and classes.  You can come to our training facilities or we can go to yours.  PEC/Premier is committed to providing training of the highest quality that not only meets your company's specific needs, but also satisfies Operator-driven and regulatory requirements.  Since we own the rights to SafeGulf and are a SafeLandUSA training organization, our training meets or exceeds these industry standards.

Savings example: CAP subscribers save $75.00 per student on PEC Basic-SafeGulf/SafeLand Orientation over non-subscribers.  Save $100.00 per student on PEC Core Compliance over non-subscribers.  For further savings on our training, please click here to see all our training course offerings.

    Replacement Badges — Receive a discount on replacement badges.
As a CAP subscriber, you will receive a significant discount on the cost replacement PEC badges for your employees.

    Advertising Assistance — Let us help advertise your company.
As a Contractor Assistance Program subscriber, we can help you advertise your company in two important ways:

  • Display your company logo, website link, and a company description on your SSQ home page where Operators can see it.  This will make your company stand out against the competition.

  • Display your company's name, address, logo, contact information, a brief company description, and website link on PEC's Current CAP Listing website page, which lists all CAP subscribers.  This page is a place where Operators can search for Contractors.  This is is one of the industries most accurate and accessible directories.  Just one call or lead resulting in added business could pay for many years of your CAP subscription.


    Participation on CDT — Be part of the Contractor Development Team.
The Contractor Development Team (CDT) was created to provide you, as a contractor, with an equal opportunity to have input on decisions that may have direct impact on your business.  As a subscriber to CAP, your company is automatically a member of the CDT.  This benefit gives your company a venue to voice your suggestions and concerns to the operators.  Over a number of years this can lead to meaningful changes that may be very positive not only for your company but the entire industry.

    Subsidiary Tree — Manage multiple SSQs with one login.
If your company has multiple SSQ accounts, this CAP benefit allows you to manage all of your SSQ accounts from a single user login.  You can organize all of your subsidiary companies in one place so Operators can easily find the correct SSQ.

    Confirmation of Employee Training — Verify potential hire's PEC training.
You can confirm that a potential employee has completed SafeGulf, SafeLandUSA, PEC Basic-SafeGulf/SafeLand Orientation, or PEC Core Compliance training.  CAP subscribers receive lookup rights in our new Training Tracker database.  You will have the ability to lookup, view, and print the PEC training history of potential employees as well as existing or former employees.  This benefit can save your company on duplicate training costs.  If a new hire says they have been through SafeGulf or PEC Core Compliance but have no documentation, you can now verify whether they really need to be trained or not.  Again, this tool can save your company valuable time and money.

PREMIUM BENEFITS — Helping you to be proactive.
CAP subscriber participant Premium Benefits are products and services available for purchase designed specifically for companies to be proactive once industry standards have been met.   (Click on the benefits below to expand them.)

    Subcontractor Management Services — Manage your Contractor's SSQs.
As a CAP benefit, your company is entitled to purchase Subcontractor Management Services.  This benefit allows your company to set up and view your subcontractors’ SSQs.  Just as Operators are looking for contractors with excellent safety programs in place, your company also needs to ensure its subcontractors meet Operator expectations.  Many contractors tell us this benefit saves them time and money in managing this important data.  Pricing varies based on the number of subcontractors.

    Train-the-Trainer — Train your employees in-house.
Only employees of CAP subscriber's are eligible to be certified as in-house PEC instructors. They are then authorized to deliver PEC training for your company personnel.  Your company can save thousands of dollars by doing your training in-house.  Click here for more information on our Train-the-Trainer course offerings.

    Materials Printing License — Print your own PEC course materials and save.
If you already have PEC instructors on staff and your company is a CAP subscriber, you can purchase a Materials Printing License which will allow you print your own PEC student training manuals on-site. Furthermore, the Materials Printing License allows you to purchase PEC course packets that do not include the printed student manuals. This significantly reduces the cost per packet.
