ARC Solutions

ARC Solutions is a safety training and building support company based in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania. The business was originally founded under the name Advanced Restoration, Cleaning & Building Solutions and now operates under the shortened ARC Solutions name through two connected divisions: ARC Training Solutions and ARC Building Solutions. The first division handles authorized OSHA Outreach training and related safety program work, while the second focuses on owner-side project representation, containment, remediation support, and building repair services.

The combination is somewhat unusual. Many companies offer either classroom safety instruction or field construction services, but ARC works in both areas, which means the training side draws on active jobsite experience and the building side operates with safety documentation and hazard planning already built into the process. Clients range from individual homeowners to contractors, facility and maintenance departments, property managers, and service providers who operate in buildings that remain occupied while work is underway.

Leadership and Background

ARC Solutions is led by Jake Klipp, an authorized OSHA Outreach Trainer with more than 20 years of experience spanning restoration work, environmental services, healthcare support environments, construction, and facility operations. That background across multiple sectors informs how courses are structured. Healthcare support settings, for example, involve infection control and occupied-space considerations that differ substantially from an open construction site, and restoration work introduces moisture, microbial, and contaminated material concerns that are not always covered in depth by general safety instruction.

Authorization as an OSHA Outreach Trainer is granted through OSHA Training Institute Education Centers and allows a trainer to issue official Department of Labor course completion cards for the 10-hour and 30-hour programs. This distinction matters to employers and general contractors who require documented, verifiable training records rather than informal in-house safety meetings.

OSHA Outreach Training

ARC Training Solutions delivers both of the standard OSHA Outreach programs in both available tracks.

• OSHA 10-Hour Outreach Training: An entry-level course intended for employees, field technicians, and crew members. Content covers common workplace hazards, safe work practices, and what OSHA expects of workers and employers. Offered in General Industry and Construction tracks.
• OSHA 30-Hour Outreach Training: A more detailed program built for supervisors, managers, and lead technicians who carry responsibility for hazard recognition and for reinforcing safety expectations with their teams. Also offered in both General Industry and Construction tracks.

Choosing between the General Industry and Construction tracks depends on the nature of the work. Construction applies to building, renovation, and demolition activity, while General Industry covers manufacturing, warehousing, healthcare, and most facility maintenance operations. ARC can advise on which track fits a given workforce.

Private Group and Short-Format Courses

Private group training is available on-site at a client facility or at an arranged location. Sessions are scheduled around operational needs, sized to the attendee count, and use examples drawn from the conditions the group actually works in rather than generic scenarios. Attendance and completion documentation is provided, which is often a requirement for contractor prequalification, insurance review, or client audits.

For organizations that need targeted refreshers rather than a full Outreach course, ARC offers short-format and topic-specific sessions. Subjects include:

• Hazard communication
• Personal protective equipment
• Ladder safety
• Walking and working surfaces
• Fall protection
• Scaffold and aerial lift awareness
• Excavation awareness
• Respiratory protection
• Mold awareness
• Bloodborne pathogens
• Hazardous materials awareness

Safety Program and Jobsite Support

Beyond classroom instruction, ARC assists with the written and procedural side of compliance. Services include site-specific safety planning, support in developing written safety programs, job hazard review, and guidance on documentation practices. The emphasis is on aligning what a written program says with what actually happens in the field, a gap that frequently appears during inspections or after an incident.

Jobsite safety support covers the day-to-day elements of running a safe project: pre-project safety briefings, toolbox talks, site orientation for new personnel, communicating safety expectations to subcontractors, contractor coordination, and direct site safety observation while work is in progress.

Owner-Side Project Representation

ARC Building Solutions provides representation for property owners and facility teams following a loss or during a repair project. Rather than performing mitigation work and reporting on itself, ARC acts on the owner's side. This includes scope review, communication with mitigation contractors, walkthroughs, progress tracking with photo documentation, issue tracking, and support through project closeout. For owners who lack in-house construction expertise, this provides an informed set of eyes on scope, sequencing, and completion.

Containment, Remediation, and Building Services

Containment work is a central specialty. ARC sets up work area isolation, dust control, occupied-space protection, and environmental separation for remediation, renovation, selective demolition, and facility projects where dust, debris, odors, or contaminants must not migrate into adjacent areas. This is particularly relevant in buildings that continue to operate during construction, such as medical offices, schools, apartment buildings, and commercial tenant spaces.

Related services include:

• Mold remediation support, including contaminated material removal, containment, and coordination with environmental consultants when third-party oversight or post-remediation clearance testing is involved
• Managed building services delivered through qualified subcontractors under ARC oversight, covering selective demolition, facility repairs, and post-remediation restoration
• Interior repairs and finishes, including drywall, ceilings, painting, flooring, trim, and finish work following remediation, containment, selective demolition, water damage, or routine maintenance

Water Damage Response

ARC maintains 24/7 availability for water damage calls at 484-561-7118. Response includes moisture inspection, water extraction, structural drying, remedial cleaning, documentation of conditions and progress, and support through the repair phase. Documentation during this stage is often important for insurance purposes, and ARC's approach pairs the physical work with a record of what was found and what was done.
