ISN® helps renewable energy leader improve subcontractor compliance and operational efficiency
DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ISN, the global leader in contractor and supplier information management services, highlights its expanded partnership with TruGrid, a leading utility-scale engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) company specializing in battery energy storage systems and solar technology. Since implementing ISNetworld for subcontractor management, ISN has helped TruGrid continue to grow its subcontractor base and elevate its subcontractor management program.
Headquartered in Houston, Texas, TruGrid uses ISNetworld to benchmark safety performance for its Hiring Clients in the energy industry. Recognizing a need to take its health, safety, and environmental (HSE) program to the next level, TruGrid also implemented ISNetworld for subcontractor HSE qualification.
“TruGrid requires an A or B rating in ISNetworld from all of our subcontractors. After implementing ISNetworld to manage our subcontractors, there has been a clear and positive impact on TruGrid’s site safety performance, including zero recordable incidents, no lost time, fewer delays, and greater alignment with industry standards,” said Jody Snodgrass, CEO of TruGrid. “By holding our subcontractors to the same standard expected of TruGrid, we reinforce our commitment to operational excellence and deliver high-quality energy solutions.”
TruGrid leverages ISNetworld to source and evaluate subcontractors based on criteria such as safety statistics, insurance compliance, and written HSE program review. TruGrid plans to implement RAVS 360™ later this year, enhancing its evaluation process by incorporating an increased focus on its subcontractors identifying and closing gaps in safety culture, worker training, and HSE policies.
“TruGrid’s expansion of ISNetworld to include its subcontractors reinforces the company’s dedication to reduce risk and improve safety on its jobsites,” said Rick Dorsett, Vice President of Energy Operations at ISN. “We are proud to support TruGrid’s efforts to protect people and uphold the highest standards on every project.”
In addition to using ISNetworld to find qualified subcontractors, TruGrid also participates in the platform as a contractor for its EPC projects. TruGrid is committed to exceeding safety standards, minimizing risk, improving project efficiency, and protecting the well-being of every worker on its jobsites. These efforts directly contribute to long-term Hiring Client success, helping produce projects on time and on budget.
