More Expertise  

 In order to save time and money to the client, SkyBlue is training all of its Welders in COSS (Controller of Site Safety) competency. This means a double benefit to the clients as they know they have the appropriate trained people on the track within the self contained welding team and eliminates the extra cost of a COSS trained personnel required on any project.

The saving can be at least £200 per shift by providing a COSS within the welding team.
