DFW EHS COOP Program
Outsourced EHS Retainer for Dallas-Fort Worth Manufacturers
DFW manufacturers face ongoing OSHA compliance, environmental permitting, and industrial hygiene requirements without the cost of a full-time EHS hire. iSi's COOP program provides dedicated EHS support — from compliance calendars and documentation to quarterly audits and monthly on-site monitoring — starting at $15,000 per year. Three tiers match your facility size and risk profile.
The COOP Advantage: National EHS for Local Pricing
Most DFW manufacturers need dedicated EHS support but cannot justify a full-time hire. In-house EHS managers cost $130K–$195K annually, plus benefits, payroll, and employment liability. You get one person tied to one facility.
iSi's COOP program inverts that model. Pay a fixed annual retainer starting at $15,000 and get access to a national team of EHS consultants, industrial hygienists, and compliance specialists. Your Compliance Foundation tier includes compliance calendars, document management, and quarterly reviews. Upgrade to Compliance Maintenance for monthly on-site visits and continuous monitoring. Go full Compliance Partner Program for strategic EHS leadership and direct consultant access.
No payroll overhead. No benefits administration. No long-term employment contracts. Scale up or down as your business changes.
