Our Integrated Management
System for Marine Construction
Riverside and Pickering has implemented an Integrated Management System (IMS) that seamlessly combines multiple compliance frameworks to ensure excellence in quality, safety, and regulatory adherence in our marine construction operations. The IMS integrates an ISO 9001:2015-compliant Quality Management System (QMS), an ISM Code-compliant Safety Management System (SMS), an OSHA Voluntary Protection Program (VPP)-compliant Safety & Health Plan, and a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers EM-385-compliant Safety System. The system is supported by Wombat Safety Software for streamlined personnel and compliance recordkeeping.
