PIRC Meeting Recap: Defining "Restorer", Background Checks, Industry Goals, & More

Industry News
August 6, 2018

As the Property Insurance and Restoration Conference began with record attendance, the group reviewed the Anti-Trust, Mission and Vision Statements, and how the conference started. All attendees were brought up to speed with a quick overview of the previously held meetings. Since the last meeting, the Definitions Committee has produced three documents for review and the Agenda Committee continues to work on the topics and locations for the group. 

The following definition was agreed upon and adopted by the body – after deliberation of several aspects - to identify a “Consultant” as the following:

Consultant - A consultant is someone that gives an independent assessment of requested services. This person shall be limited in function to an informational consulting role and is an unbiased resource for materially interested parties.

The role of an Insurer, TPA, Post-work Auditor and Restorer would later be defined. The group also agreed to later adding ethics definitions to each.

Click here for a full meeting recap that reviews the topics discussed, next steps, and the work completed during the meeting.
