The INVESTIGATIVE ENGINEERS ASSOCIATION member firms work individually in their local region; however, the network of member firms is also experienced in working together as a team or multiple teams, when the need arises.  We can bring in teams of engineers to support the local firm as needed with larger catastrophe claims.

The I-ENG-A Catastrophe (CAT) Response Team unites the member firms to serve insurance companies, government, self insured companies and the legal community with engineering expertise after catastrophic events.
