We are a financially sound provider who is agile and responsive to evolving customer requirements. We execute each project with a seasoned, on-site project manager who has the authority to make decisions and execute directives immediately. Bell's project managers are very experienced and proactive, with the foresight and knowledge to anticipate and mitigate most problems before they occur. When an unavoidable problem does occur, the Bell team will resolve it quickly, with the lowest possible impact to costs and timelines. To help ensure job site safety and minimize liability, Bell requires a 30 hour OSHA Training Certification for all Superintendents and Foremen, as well as 10 Hours of OSHA training for all craft, upon hire. For project design and execution, Bell is a leader in Building Information Modeling (BIM), which enables us to resolve many design conflicts before they become an issue in the field.

Our ASME B31.1 and B31.3 compliant Fabrication facility is operated by an experienced fabrication superintendent and highly skilled workers.  Our facility fabricates custom pipe configurations to enable us to meet aggressive scheduling requirements or advance schedules. Bell regularly engages with third party Commissioning Agents from the start of the project, assuring that compliance issues rarely arise during commissioning and validation of our facilities.  If problems do arise, Bell works diligently to ensure the facility works according to specification, and is fully compliant with applicable design.
