Experience  

IMAP Auditors are the best in the respective disciplines and services we provide.  From Certified Insulation Energy Appraisers to asbestos sampling technicians, our auditors are experienced and professional.

IMAP uses infrared thermal technology when carrying out an audit. The results of their findings are entered into the IMAP computer program to generate a meaningful report that prioritizes repairs and upgrades based on estimated cost of repair and payback periods.

Paul Desrochers, General Manager of IMAP Audits Inc., says that “IMAP is ideal for companies that want to control their operating and maintenance budgets.”

"It allows you to schedule your work based on priorities," he says. "It allows you to establish and monitor your short- and long-term budget requirements, and allows you to control your operating costs."

Commercial Alcohols Inc. is Canada's largest producer of industrial/fuel and beverage grade alcohols and relies extensively on its sophisticated network of piping to produce 175 million litres of alcohol every year. Pipe insulation is extremely important to its business because freezing pipes could seriously hinder its production process. Prior to hiring IMAP, the company relied on visual inspections by plant operations workers.

Maintenance Supervisor Lee Holmes calls the old way of doing things very inefficient.

"IMAP is a very effective way to keep on top of maintenance," he says. "Their reports provide everything. They give a breakdown of needed repairs and cost estimates with material costs included."

Featured by Natural Resources Canada, as stated in their Heads Up newsletter: The Integrated Maintenance Audit Program (IMAP) helps organizations maintain good insulation practices by continuously monitoring insulation systems. Developed in Canada by IMAP Audits, IMAP lays out a detailed energy-saving maintenance schedule that outlines timetables, priority repairs and projected costs, and can provide that information to facility managers through a secure web access.
