JERICHO,
N.Y., Jan. 16, 2025 /CNW/ -- Global
consulting firm J.S. Held announces the acquisition of Technorm,
Quebéc's leading forensic, building safety and compliance experts.
Now a part of J.S. Held, Technorm advises architects, engineers,
building owners, insurance professionals, and legal counsel
throughout the building lifecycle. Their services include a range
of proactive and reactive services that combine the team's codes
and standards, fire safety, training, and forensic engineering
expertise.
Technorm brings expertise in building codes
and standards, fire safety, forensic engineering, and training to
J.S. Held.
"As a result of the transaction, Technorm clients now have
access to more than 1,500 technical, scientific, financial, and
strategic experts specializing in construction consulting, health
and safety, the environment, forensic animation, materials analysis
and lab testing, fire investigation, forensic accounting, human
factors analysis, forensic architecture and engineering, and
accident reconstruction, among others," shares Technorm President,
Marc-André Langevin. "Our team members across all levels will
benefit from the J.S. Held Expert Branding Program, which includes
marketing resources, mentorship, and training focused on service
delivery, client development, and branding," adds Luc Germain, Technorm Managing Director.
Technorm experts guide building owners, developers, and their
agents through evolving building codes and fire safety standards to
mitigate risk and ensure building compliance. The firm's dedicated
fire safety professionals leverage unique expertise to advise on
the design of fire protection systems for industrial, commercial,
institutional, and residential building construction projects.
Following a sudden and unforeseeable event, Technorm forensic
engineers assess damage to a property or building, conduct rigorous
inspections to ascertain the cause, and present the findings in a
concise and reliable forensic report.
Combined knowledge and experience across the firm's 70
professionals is institutionalized and shared with the community
via a series of training courses mainly on the National Building
Code, Chapter I – Building. Intended for professionals across the
construction industry, including architects, architectural
technologists, contractors, designers, professional engineers, and
property managers, Technorm training is recognized by most
professional orders (OAQ, OIQ, Barreau du Québec, ATPQ) in a
continuing education framework.
Jim Stanilious, Senior Executive
Vice President and J.S. Held Insurance Services Division Lead,
comments on the acquisition, "Building upon the successful
expansion of our team across Canada, Technorm brings decades of engineering
and architecture expertise focused on the needs of the expanding
