“Dan’s expertise in building and implementing quality assurance programs for oil and gas industry clients makes him an invaluable asset for our MPG team,” said Jimmy Fontenot, president, MPG Pipeline Contractors. “An even more effective quality assurance program will not only improve the quality of MPG products and services but will also strengthen the value of our company operations and enhance customer satisfaction.”
