Former majority owner and founder, Robert Andrews, will retain an interest in the company, while the management team, led by President Gracia Rosslow will continue managing the business. “I am proud of what we accomplished with IES in its first 13 years,” said Andrews, “and am excited about the increased resources the investor group brings and the accompanying potential for IES to deliver its services to a broader range of customers.”
As part of the transaction, the company’s headquarters was moved to Baton Rouge, Louisiana where the company has a large number of industrial clients as well as a co-operative fire brigade providing multiple facilities with the same range of services provided to its in-plant fire brigade customers, but on a shared-cost basis.
Industrial Emergency Services, LLC (“IES”), was formed in 1999 to provide industrial fire brigade services on an outsourced basis for major petrochemical firms. The company’s initial core capabilities of industrial, flammable liquid and marine firefighting, have been greatly expanded over time to include the provision of rescue standby services, a range of training services and inspection, maintenance and testing. The company has recently expanded its offerings related to pipeline safety to answer customer demand. IES provides services across the United States and internationally.
