Go Pave Utah Achieves Avetta Compliance

Avetta is a global supply chain risk management platform that connects companies with pre-qualified contractors and suppliers through a rigorous certification and compliance process. Companies that achieve Avetta compliance have demonstrated that they meet established safety, regulatory, insurance and financial standards designed to reduce risk across construction and industrial projects.

Achieving Avetta compliance reinforces Go Pave Utah’s commitment to maintaining safety standards that exceed minimum OSHA requirements. It also provides clients and project partners with added confidence that their team operates with the training, procedures and operational discipline required to perform safely and efficiently on complex jobsites.

As part of the certification process, Go Pave Utah completed comprehensive safety compliance audits and developed detailed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and safety programs covering 19 critical safety areas. These measures help ensure Go Pave Utah is fully aligned with the compliance expectations commonly required on large-scale commercial and industrial projects.

“We developed and reviewed numerous Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and safety programs, covering 19 different safety topics — yes, 19. However, being Avetta-compliant is much more than just a paperwork exercise. It serves as a badge of honor that demonstrates our commitment to world-class safety protocols and operational standards. In many cases, it is also a prerequisite for bidding on and maintaining large-scale contracts. Most importantly, it assures our clients that we maintain the insurance coverage, safety training and operational practices necessary to work on their sites without increasing their risk profile,” said Barney Boynton, Go Pave Utah’s CEO. 

For many general contractors and project owners, Avetta compliance is an important qualification when selecting subcontractors and project partners. By achieving this certification, Go Pave Utah is better positioned to integrate seamlessly into client compliance systems, support project risk management efforts, and deliver reliable performance from prequalification through project completion.
