Our safety manual provides clear policies, procedures, and industry best practices to ensure the well-being of our employees and clients. This manual serves as the foundation for our behavior-based safety program, which reinforces proactive measures to minimize risk across all job sites.

At ACMS Group, safety is not an option—it’s our culture. We operate under a zero-tolerance policy for accidents, meaning we take every step necessary to prevent workplace incidents. The word “accident” implies unexpected, uncontrolled variables. In our line of work, we don’t believe in accidents.

Through detailed planning, advanced training, and strict adherence to safety procedures, we anticipate and control risks to protect our people. Our team is equipped with the right tools, resources, and knowledge to ensure that every project is completed safely and efficiently.

A Rich history

From our founder

At ACMS, I started with a straightforward vision — to give companies a single, accountable point of responsibility for their capital projects. I took a leap to bring this vision to life. Initially serving the refining and steel manufacturing sectors southeast of Chicago, our success quickly led to broader opportunities. The positive response from our customers fueled our growth.

As we expanded, we attracted skilled engineers, constructors, and tradespeople. We developed extensive safety systems, inspection protocols, and efficient processes, which set us apart in the industry. This growth prompted our rebranding to ACMS Group, Inc., where we are committed to delivering top-notch consulting and design services with an unwavering focus on customer satisfaction.

Today, ACMS Group, Inc. provides experience and talent to the manufacturing and construction industries as a leader in construction management and QA/QC services. We specialize in independent project management and safety solutions tailored to each industrial environment.

Our extensive experience spans the steel, refining, power generation, natural gas, chemical, automotive, food processing, and pharmaceutical industries across the U.S. We’re excited to take on your most challenging projects by partnering with our support and expertise. Let’s achieve great results, together.

Thank you,
James J. DePaoli President,
ACMS Group, Inc.
