On May 1, 2023, the International Code Council (ICC) was recognized as a new member of the TIC Council, a global organization that engages governments and key stakeholders to advocate for effective solutions that protect the public, support innovation and facilitate trade.  

Experts from the Code Council family of solutions companies ICC-ES, ICC NTA and ICC Credentialing, will collaborate with other TIC Council members such as Bureau Veritas and CSA Group to promote best practices in safety, quality, health, ethics and sustainability. 

“Membership in the TIC Council aligns with our own mission to provide information, tools, and resources that building safety professionals, manufacturers and the public can trust,” said International Code Council Chief Executive Officer Dominic Sims, CBO. “Our membership is a tremendous opportunity to collaborate with like-minded organizations to help balance public safety while accelerating innovation in TIC solutions and services.” 

“We are pleased to announce that the ICC Conformity Assessment Group has become a member of the TIC Council, joining other industry leaders,” said Shahin Moinian, P.E., executive vice president of the International Code Council’s Conformity Assessment Group. “This membership will allow us to further strengthen our position as a leading testing, inspection, and certification organization across the globe. We are committed to working with the TIC Council and its members to promote best practices, ensure safety and sustainability, and meet the evolving needs of all stakeholders within the conformity assessment arena.” 

The acronym TIC stands for testing, inspection, and certification. Conformity assessment bodies, such as ICC-ES and ICC NTA, provide auditing and inspection, testing, and certification for manufacturers worldwide.
