We Provide Accurate, Objective Data for Third-Party Litigation

Failure Analysis & Dimensional Inspection for Litigation Support

In spite of the generally high level of safety and quality of today’s consumer and industrial products, failures still occur. Parts break. Pipes leak. Welds fail. Design flaws slip into production. Whatever the cause, accidents can occur that harm people, property, and the environment.

When law firms, legal teams, and forensic engineering and consulting companies need third-party testing to support litigation or warranty claims, they choose Industrial Inspection & Analysis (IIA) for accurate, unbiased services.

As experts in failure analysis, IIA’s ISO-accredited labs offer an array of testing, scanning and dimensional inspection to reveal the root cause of failures. Our capabilities include:

As an independent testing lab, we are not here to tip the scales of justice in favor of one party or the other. We simply provide accurate, objective data, and leave the customer to draw conclusions from it.

Why You Should Choose an ISO-Accredited Provider

As the international gold standard for testing laboratories, ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation means a test laboratory has been formally evaluated by an independent accreditation body and deemed competent to provide accurate, impartial testing.

 

With IIA’s ISO accreditation, legal teams can be assured of the following:

 

  • Staff’s Technical Competence
  • Validated Test Methods
  • Use of Proper, Calibrated Equipment
  • Accurate, Traceable, Repeatable Results
  • Independence & Impartiality

 

ISO accreditation means the test data is trustworthy. Testing done by an ISO-accreditation lab minimizes requests for retesting or disputes over test validity.

One Provider. Many Testing Options.

Is it a material issue? A mechanical issue? A design flaw, or something else? Failure analysis can be a layered process, where one test leads to another in an effort to unravel the root cause of a failure.

As our repeat customers know, having access to multiple testing capabilities under one roof streamlines the testing process and keeps litigation projects on track.
