Celebrating 20 Years of Turning Knowledge Into Integrity 

This year, Integrity Solutions, Ltd. celebrates 20 years of delivering trusted expertise, innovative solutions, and results-driven support to the U.S. pipeline industry. 

“When we started Integrity Solutions, our goal was to fill a gap we saw in the industry — to bring pipeline integrity subject matter expertise, data management, and GIS technology together in a way that truly supported operators in keeping pipelines safe and compliant.” 
— Brian Yeagley, Founding Partner 

Since our founding, we’ve operated with a clear purpose: to help pipeline operators make informed, data-driven decisions that strengthen safety, ensure compliance, and improve performance. Built by analysts, problem solvers, and pipeline experts, our team has always focused on simplifying the complex by guiding operators through every stage of the integrity management process, from initial jurisdictional reviews to ongoing risk analysis and program execution.  

From Specialized Expertise to End-to-End Solutions 

What began as a focused effort to bring together integrity expertise, data management, and GIS technology has grown into a comprehensive suite of services and solutions. 

Today, Integrity Solutions supports operators across the country with: 

• Integrity management and regulatory compliance programs 

• Advanced fully quantitative risk modeling and integrity analyses 

• GIS data management and integrated data systems 

• Proprietary software solutions, including PFIM™ and MAP 

• Field construction and maintenance services through our EPC division 

By combining deep technical knowledge with real-world execution, we help operators move beyond analysis and enable actionable insights that drive safer, more efficient operations. 

A Trusted Partner to the Industry 

For nearly two decades, operators have trusted Integrity Solutions to support critical decisions around their pipeline assets. Our work spans more than 100 operators and tens of thousands of miles of infrastructure, reflecting both the scale of our experience and the confidence our clients place in our team. 

Whether supporting audit readiness, advancing data integration, or delivering boots-on-the-ground field services, our approach remains the same: practical, flexible, and results-oriented. 

Powered by People 

This milestone belongs to the people who made it possible. 

At the core of our success is our team — a group of highly experienced engineers, analysts, field crews, project managers, consultants, and support staff dedicated to delivering excellence. 

Our model has always been built around bringing the right expertise to the right challenge, wherever it exists. By combining deep industry experience with a flexible, solutions-focused mindset, our people continue to raise the standard for what pipeline management can achieve. 

To our team: thank you for your trust, commitment, expertise, and your belief in doing things the right way. 

Looking Ahead 

As the pipeline industry continues to evolve, so do we. 

“As the industry moves toward smarter data integration and advanced analytics, we’re proud to be building solutions that not only meet today’s challenges but shape tomorrow’s standards.” 
— Ryan Pivonka, CEO 

From advancing data integration and analytics to expanding our software platforms and field capabilities, Integrity Solutions is investing in the future of integrity management to help shape the next generation of industry standards while continuing to support the day-to-day realities operators face. 

Watch Our 20-Year Anniversary Video 

To celebrate this milestone, we’ve created a special anniversary video reflecting on our journey, our growth, and the future ahead.

Irth Solutions and Integrity Solutions Announce Partnership to Expand Pipeline Integrity Support Across North America  

Irth Solutions, a leader in cloud-native SaaS for asset integrity and risk management, and Integrity Solutions, a U.S.-based pipeline integrity and risk management consulting firm, today announced a strategic partnership to strengthen AIP implementation and operator support across North America.

A Partnership Built on Technology and Expertise

This partnership aligns Irth’s powerful Asset Integrity for Pipelines (AIP) software with Integrity Solutions’ extensive integrity management and regulatory expertise. The collaboration is designed to provide pipeline operators with both advanced analytics and hands-on technical support, ensuring they can fully leverage AIP to modernize their integrity management programs. As part of this collaboration, Integrity Solutions will transition its anomaly analysis work from its Anomaly Data Manager software to Irth’s AIP platform, standardizing its integrity workflows on AIP to take advantage of its industry-leading data integration, corrosion growth modeling, anomaly analysis, and dig management capabilities.

Through the agreement, Integrity Solutions will:

• Deliver direct support for AIP implementation and onboarding, helping operators configure, integrate, and operationalize the platform.
• Leverage AIP’s data analytics and automation tools to enhance core services such as inline inspection (ILI) alignment, corrosion growth modeling, risk evaluation, and fitness-for-service assessments.
• Offer ongoing consulting expertise to bridge the gap between digital analytics and real-world integrity and compliance execution.

Empowering Operators Who Depend on Engineering Partners

Many operators rely heavily on third-party integrity engineering firms to execute their integrity programs. By partnering with Integrity Solutions, Irth ensures that those operators receive both world-class technology and knowledgeable, on-the-ground support from professionals who understand the nuances of integrity data, regulatory requirements, and pipeline operations.

“We’re excited to partner with Integrity Solutions to better serve pipeline operators who rely heavily on outside consulting firms for their integrity management,” said Brandon Taylor, Chief Business Officer and General Manager of Asset Integrity at Irth Solutions. “Their on-the-ground expertise ensures AIP users get the full benefit of the platform—technically, operationally, and strategically.”

“This partnership allows us to combine the data intelligence of Irth’s AIP platform with our real-world integrity, compliance, and pipeline operations expertise,” said Ryan Pivonka, CEO of Integrity Solutions. “Together, we’re helping operators accelerate insights, improve asset performance, and strengthen compliance through a more connected approach to integrity management.”
