ACCREDITATION
Internationally Recognized Testing, Inspection and Certification
As an independent third party, the International Accreditation Service (IAS) accredits
testing and calibration laboratories, inspection agencies, building departments, fabricator inspection programs and special inspection agencies.
We can help you identify and close regulatory gaps, confirm compliance, and meet the needs of your customers. And our globally-recognized accreditation programs meet several international standards (ISO, IEC, etc.) and verify that organizations are competent and comply with requirements.
IAS is a non-profit public benefit corporation and a member of the Code Council's Family of Solutions.
