Professionalism and Integrity
Official Personnel pass rigorous testing and undergo extensive and continuous training. System
wide quality control requirements ensure that official personnel consistently provide high quality,
accurate services, and information.

Credibility
California, U.S., and international buyers rely on official inspection certificates to provide accurate,
official descriptions of the grade, class and condition of graded products. Official inspection
certificates are legal documents that are admissible in court.

Verifiable Accuracy
State of the art equipment and processes are verified and re verified by qualified technicians, using
finely calibrated instruments and official reference methods. Our service is backed by the resources
and expertise of the FGIS technical center in Kansas City, Missouri.

Appeals and Reviews
The official system provides for the re inspection and appeal inspection of original inspection
results. This allows customers to resolve differences or discrepancies. The FGIS Board of Appeals
and Review renders final appeal decisions.
