The City of Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety has issued its first research report based on an IAPMO ES evaluation report, paving the way for manufacturers nationwide to utilize the responsive, credible services offered by IAPMO ES to market their building products within Los Angeles.
“This means that manufacturers may use their IAPMO ES evaluation report to apply for a Los Angeles Research Report at the same level of validity as any other third-party evaluation provider,” said Amir Zamanian, director of IAPMO Evaluation Services. “An IAPMO ES report now opens doors to the nearly 4 million people living in Los Angeles.”
Building product manufacturers and building officials alike are looking for more than just the required paperwork when it comes to Evaluation Reports — they’re looking for a real partner in the process; a true liaison to shepherd the process from start to finish. They find it with IAPMO ES.
“IAPMO ES offers a remarkable combination of expertise, professionalism, credibility, customer service, affordability, speed and of course a readily accepted evaluation report; everything the building industry seeks from a third-party provider of evaluation services,” says Shahin Moinian, P.E., senior director of IAPMO ES.
From top to bottom, IAPMO ES is staffed with highly experienced, attentive engineers and customer service representatives, who give each client their undivided attention throughout the process for each report IAPMO ES completes on their behalf. The organization features more professional engineers and structural engineers on staff and through its qualified subcontractors than any other product evaluator in a similar field.
As a third-party provider of services and reports, impartiality is a requirement. IAPMO ES takes this pledge to heart, as it is an organization-wide philosophy to equally serve the manufacturer seeking the evaluation and the building official for whom it is intended.
Because IAPMO ES works more efficiently, it can perform its work in a more streamlined fashion, delivering what the industry ultimately demands: speed to market, assurance of safety and unquestioned code compliance. End user safety is never compromised, as IAPMO ES conforms to more stringent checks and balances that go above and beyond the requirements of ISO/IEC Guide 65 and what many other agencies offer.
