FIS Advisory Service

FIS offers an Advisory Service on issues relating to commercial installations, covering all matters relating to suspended ceilings, partitioning, drylining, plastering and access floors. This covers materials, ancillary equipment, systems, their application and installation.
Overview

FIS has a panel of competent persons, experienced in the interiors industry, who can be called upon.  Arrangements in connection with the FIS Advisory Service are:

  • In the event of the request arising from a dispute, it would be necessary for you to inform all the parties concerned that you are engaging the FIS to examine and report on the installation and that the report will be submitted to you.
  • The FIS written report will be simply a technical opinion and will in no way purport to be a judgement or adjudication between the parties.
  • FIS does not hold itself responsible for the use to which the parties concerned put the technical report or expert opinion, and only participates on this clear understanding.

Appoint an independent advisor

If you wish to appoint a consultant via the FIS Advisory Service please supply the information requested here via email to cathreeves@thefis.org  Upon receipt, we will send you a ‘clients appointment letter’, which you will need to sign and return to FIS, together with an official order including an order number. Non-members will also be sent an invoice to cover the on-account payment.

Arrangements will be made for the Adviser to contact you to arrange a site visit when the signed ‘clients appointment letter’ payment terms and an order have been received alongside a copy of the Covid-19 site operating procedures, in line with the current Government recommendations, for review to ensure there are adequate provisions for site visitors.
