Saltegra Consulting LLC

What Saltegra Consulting LLC does

Saltegra Consulting LLC is a privately held, boutique process safety and risk management consulting firm founded in 2017 by Michael Saura and headquartered in Irvine, California. The firm provides specialized consulting services to enterprise clients operating facilities that handle highly hazardous chemicals, including chemical manufacturing, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, ammonia refrigeration, biogas/biomass, and industrial manufacturing. The company name derives from the Latin words 'salvus' (safety) and 'integra' (integrity), reflecting its core mission.

The firm's service portfolio centers on Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) using industry-standard methodologies — HAZOP, HAZID, What-If/Checklists, FMEA, LOPA, and SIL Selection — and extends to Bowtie Analysis (delivered via the BowTieXP platform under a Value-Added Consultancy Partnership with CGE Risk Management Solutions, a Wolters Kluwer company), Layer of Protection Analysis, Hierarchy of Controls Analysis, RMP/CalARP submittal, PSM/RMP/CalARP audits and program enhancement, procedures development, emergency planning, and structured training. Saltegra claims its PHA facilitation methodology can reduce session times by up to 30% through proprietary preparation systems and innovative techniques. The firm uses PHA Pro (Sphera) and PHA Works (Primatech) as additional software tools, and is building a digital content presence through its PHA 101 online course, webinars, and whitepapers.

Saltegra operates a B2B professional services model with quote-based, multi-year contract pricing, delivered through direct enterprise field sales supported by website-driven lead capture. The company runs an asynchronous delivery model with US-based leadership in Irvine and a Philippines-based operations support team in Quezon City, enabling cost-efficient project execution. Geographic reach spans 10+ US states (including Alaska, Hawaii, Louisiana, Texas, and Pennsylvania), with stated plans to expand into Southeast Asia and South America. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, and the management roster includes roughly 28 named staff across facilitation, engineering, operations, marketing, and advisory functions. Industry partnerships with the Philippine Institute of Chemical Engineers (PIChE) and the Pollution Control Association of the Philippines (PCAPI) support its regional positioning.
