Together in Safety,
Stronger in Collaboration

You may not know ACTS, but we’ve been in the middle of excavation safety and damage prevention for more than 17 years. You can learn more about us in 2025 by attending the Global Damage Prevention Summit and by reading the new Global 811 Magazine published quarterly and mailed to more than 85,000 recipients. If you are looking to make a difference, we think you’ll find we fit like a glove... a work glove!

What We Do

The foundation of ACTS has always been about creating meaningful relationships, friendships, and partnerships as we navigate the unexpected and the inevitable changes beyond our control. Aligning Change To Succeed has been, and continues to be, what we are all about.
 
At the heart of everything we do is safety for our friends and families. We get involved when we can, and stay out of your way when we can't, because it is about you. We want to understand you. Listening to understand what works for you and what doesn't, and making the introductions and connections necessary for your success is our commitment.  
 
Here's how we do it: through publications, conferences (i.e. Summits), programs like the Pipeline Ag Safety Alliance, our monthly Town Halls designed to respond to your questions, monthly newsletters, and special training requests. If none of these hit the mark, you can always contact us directly about a specific issue to explore the possibilities - which are still infinity and beyond!
