The ILC Reputation
We bring proven industry expertise in determining when to repair versus replace, as well as identifying opportunities for reverse engineering. Our experienced skill set enables us to deliver efficient, cost-conscious solutions that help control claim expenses and minimize the impact of business interruption.
Repair vs. Replace
When machinery or equipment is damaged, one of the most critical questions is: Can it be rebuilt, or should it be replaced? ILC provides clarity on these claims, utilizing proven methods, detailed data, and comprehensive assessments to determine the most effective path to resolution. Our experts understand what’s involved in justifying a repair versus a replacement—balancing cost, time, and resources to support the best outcome for each claim. By leveraging technical expertise and industry insight, ILC helps ensure your decision is backed by evidence and aligned with claim objectives. If you are questioning whether repairing or replacing is the right solution, the first step in answering that question is to call the ILC team.
Reduction in Business Interruption
When a large commercial loss occurs, time is critical. Clients turn to ILC to identify solutions that prioritize repair over replacement, returning damaged machinery and equipment to pre-loss condition quickly and effectively. ILC guides clients down the most efficient path forward—sourcing and vetting qualified vendors, overseeing project management, and ensuring repairs are completed accurately, on time, and in a cost-conscious manner. Our approach keeps the insured’s best interests at the forefront while minimizing downtime and disruption.
Reverse Engineering
When a disaster disrupts business operations, ILC applies reverse engineering strategies to guide recovery from post-loss back to full functionality. Our consultants project manage the loss site, coordinating with owners, vendors, and insurers to reduce business income loss and uncover every viable restoration option. By carefully deconstructing the damage and mapping out repair pathways, ILC helps clients return machinery, equipment, and facilities to pre-loss condition as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Valuation Services
ILC’s machinery and equipment consultants deliver precise and defensible valuation reports to support the claims process. Our team determines the Actual Cash Value (ACV) and Replacement Cost Value (RCV), identifies Like, Kind, and Quality (LKQ) replacement options, and develops a scope of repair for equipment that is determined to be repairable. With decades of hands-on industry expertise, ILC ensures valuations are thorough, evidence-based, and aligned with claim objectives—helping clients make confident, cost-effective decisions.
