Webster Parish Police Jury, LA

"The Webster Parish Police Jury contracted with IBTS to administer the Parish's Building Code Department in January 2008. We began working with the IBTS staff in 2006 to set up necessary Ordinances, Intergovernmental Agreements with local municipalities, and secure grant funding for our newly organized Building Department. As of January 1, 2007, the State of Louisiana implemented the LA Unified Building Code; prior to this, Webster Parish had no formal building department and were ill equipped to implement a department. IBTS literally took us by the hand and led my Jury and Staff through the process to organize an efficient department, including securing funding for this department. IBTS will help with administrative details, plan reviews, inspections and assistance in working with the local contractors, builders, lending agents and others in the construction industry. Here in North Louisiana IBTS has implemented a Building Code Department that is uniform through multiple parishes that adjoin the I-20 corridor.

I would like to recommend the IBTS Company as well as the qualified staff members to you."

--Ronda C. Carnahan, Secretary-Treasurer, Webster Parish Police Jury

The vast range of services they have provided to us includes, but is not limited to helping to write ordinances, administering the program, providing timely plan reviews and inspections and responding to the calls and needs from citizens.

I commend IBTS for their outstanding work ethics and high standards. And I feel that their services would be an asset to any organization."

Louisiana State Uniform Construction Code Council (LSUCCC)

"I am writing this email to give my wholehearted endorsement to IBTS to handle any program associated with construction and building codes in Louisiana. IBTS supplied certified inspectors and plan reviewers to Louisiana in its largest hour of need, immediately after Katrina and Rita. Their employees were professional and knowledgeable. Their leadership always delivered timely on promises, and they were a huge part of the success of implementing enforced building codes as quickly as the state accomplished. I would not hesitate to call on IBTS to assist in any programs in the recovery of our state. They are organized and more importantly they genuinely care about our citizens. They have treated all the victims of the storms with dignity and respect and understand the importance of timely delivery of services to traumatized victims of our disasters. I am available for questions concerning their performance in any of the programs they participated in. These programs included: supplying certified code officials, training, opening regional retail third party provider code offices, and facilitating studies into code office software for the Louisiana State Uniform Construction Code Council."

--Randy Noel, Chairman, LSUCCC
