TEAM Services is dedicated to high quality, timely and thorough services in materials, geotechnical engineering, construction testing, and special inspections for owners, designers and contractors. Our firm is wholly owned and operated by employees. TEAM Services operations are centered in Des Moines, Iowa with branch offices in Fort Dodge, Cedar Rapids, Mason City, Davenport, Spirit Lake, Waterloo, IA, and Sioux Falls, SD.

TEAM Services’ philosophy represents a departure from the traditional consultant and testing laboratory role. In the spirit of "Partnering", TEAM Services uses engineering and scientific capabilities to help foresee critical phases of projects and provide timely and practical engineered solutions. Clear communication of goals to contractors and prompt feedback to foremen and workers "on-site" makes us an effective management and quality assurance tool for contractors, designers, and owners.

TEAM Services is internationally accredited by the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation for the testing listed in the attached Scope of Accreditation. TEAM Services is accredited in accordance with the recognised International Standard ISO/IEC 17025:2005. This accreditation demonstrates technical competence for a defined scope and the operation of a laboratory quality management system (refer joint ISO-ILAC-IAF Communique dated January 2009 at www.teamsvcs.com/TEAM/qc.html). This program involves implementation of a significant, documented, internal and external quality program as well as independent audit of our procedures and systems as required by ISO/IEC Guide 17025:2005. Our quality system is ISO 9000 Series compliant and is internationally recognized. We participate in both CCRL and AMRL proficiency testing programs. Our testing is performed with calibrated equipment with calibrations of force, weight, length, time and temperature traceable to NIST standards. Based upon our ISO/IEC Guide 17025:2005 accreditation, TEAM Services is also accepted by agencies such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Federal Aviation Administration. TEAM Services is prequalified by the Iowa and Illinois Departments of Transportation for various categories of work.
