IBT benefits from the tremendous synergy of The IAPMO Group
We understand the competitive landscape in which manufacturers operate
We understand the regulatory requirements they need to satisfy
We understand what our customers need to succeed
IBT’s unique position within the organization lets our well-rounded staff communicate with IAPMO’s civil, mechanical, and electrical engineers, consultants, chemists, code experts, and other related professionals.
For those customers who also require product certification and inspection services, selecting an organization that provides all three services under one roof permits a manufacturer to save precious time and money, while ensuring that they are working with a firm that both understands the industry and the certification process.
