Contractor Prequalification
Get approved and stay approved in ISNetworld, Avetta, and operator-specific portals — scores managed, gaps closed, renewals on time.
Risk & Safety Consulting — The Americas
Pass the audit.
Keep the contract.
Salvora helps small and mid-sized contractors across the United States and Latin America meet the safety and prequalification standards that mining, oil, and gas operators require — so you stay in the supply chain and win the next bid.
The reality
Operators won't put an unprepared vendor on site.
Major mining and energy companies screen every contractor before work begins — and again at renewal. Prequalification platforms, operator HSE audits, and documented management systems are now the price of entry to their supply chains.
For a small or mid-sized firm without a dedicated HSE department, that bar can cost you the bid — or an existing contract. We build the system that clears it, and keep it standing.
What gets checked at the gate
The recurring requirements behind most contractor rejections.
- —Prequalification status (ISNetworld, Avetta, operator portals)
- —A documented HSE management system
- —Recordable injury rates (TRIR / EMR) within limits
- —Job hazard analyses and risk registers
- —Trained, certified, documented crews
What we do
Everything an operator expects — built for your size.
HSE Management Systems
An ISO 45001-aligned system that also satisfies OSHA — policies, procedures, and records that hold up in a real audit.
Operational Risk Assessment
Identify, rank, and assign your real hazards — by likelihood and severity, with a named owner and a date — before an auditor or an incident does.
Audit & Bid Readiness
Gap analysis and document packages that answer operator questionnaires and tender requirements — so your bid is complete and credible.
Training & Field Implementation
Bilingual training and on-site rollout that lives on the ground — not just in a binder. Crews who can show what they know.
Cross-Border Compliance
One accountable system across U.S. and Latin American operations — reconciling OSHA, ISO 45001, and local regulators under a single standard.
Governance
Two frameworks. One standard of care.
ISO 45001
The international management system for occupational health & safety.
OSHA
The U.S. regulatory standard for workplace safety & compliance.
We align both into one accountable system — owned at the top, lived on the ground.
Who we serve
Contractors and suppliers to the operators of the Americas.
Surface & underground
Drilling, earthworks, maintenance, logistics, and specialized services feeding copper, gold, lithium, and coal operations from Chile and Peru to Nevada.
Field & wellsite services
Well services, rig support, construction, and inspection crews working the basins of Texas, the Permian, Vaca Muerta, and the Gulf.
Pipeline, plant & transport
Pipeline construction, turnaround, terminal, and transport contractors who must meet operator and regulatory safety thresholds to keep moving product.
How we work
A clear path from exposed to operator-ready.
01
Assess
We benchmark your operations against the operator's requirements and find the gaps before they cost you.
02
Align
We design a management system that reconciles ISO 45001, OSHA, and local rules into one standard you can run.
03
Document
We produce the prequalification and audit evidence — risk registers, procedures, records — that hold up under review.
04
Sustain
We keep scores current, train your crews, and stand with you at renewal — so the contract stays yours.
Why it pays
Unmanaged risk is the most expensive line item you don't see.
10%
of GDP is the burden occupational accidents can reach in developing economies.
$1B
every week — what U.S. employers pay in direct costs for disabling workplace injuries.
$4–6
returned for every $1 invested in proactive safety, by common industry estimates.
