Welcome to the Process Improvement Institute

Process Improvement Institute (PII) and its instructors have trained more than 7000 technical and management staff in how to effectively implement PSM, safety management systems, and equipment reliability programs. The training section of this web site describes our many standardized courses. If these courses do not fully meet your need, we can customize or adjust course content, exercises, and schedules accordingly for a course taught just for you.

We are currently updating the data and resulting paper on getting near misses reported.  If you are an operating site/organization, we would like your input.  Please participate in PII's survey on Near Miss Reporting.

Following classroom training, your staff may need coaching (hands-on training) to help complete the training that has begun. And, PII can provide contract (consulting) services to support or augment your staff if they are over-loaded or if you need or want an independent review of your processes or management systems. We have performed hundreds of hazard and risk analyses and we have helped many companies implement management systems to control risk to people, assets, production, quality, and the environment.

"PII provides outstanding process safety and loss control training and consulting services.  I have worked extensively with Bill Bridges and his colleagues for years, and have found their expertise and standard of care to be second to none.  They have customized training for CCP and have provided hands-on help with PHAs (HAZOPs), PHA revalidations, and continual improvement with PSM.  One aspect of PII that we greatly appreciate is that they do not charge additional licensing fees (as others do) for use of and training with standard industry methods such as Root Cause Analysis.  PII is considered part of our team at CCP.  We highly recommend PII."

– Michael Gromacki, Vice President, Engineering and Loss Control, Cook Composites and Polymers Co. (CCP)
