PPS Personnel

The PPS advantage for Professional Support Services is that we pull from our seasoned field technical workforce of over 275 team members with a multitude of educational and experience-driven backgrounds. Individuals selected to interview with you will have the right skill set and working experience to understand not only the work to be performed but also the field and operating conditions – this approach allows the services to be turnkey support because our people “get it” and can “get it done”.

PPS also has a network of utility industry experts with backgrounds ranging from Regulatory Compliance to Safety and Utility Management. This expertise is tapped not only to deliver support to our teams but also to deliver high-level analysis and consultation on Integrity Management Programs.
