What a procurement office will want to see
Certification, coverage, and registration, all verifiable.
Pinnacle Specialty Services Group LLC, based at 15884 W. 6th Ave., Golden, CO 80401. The credentials below are what allow us to work in hospital kitchens, district buildings, gaming properties, and government facilities rather than restaurants alone, and every one of them is something you can ask us to evidence.
IKECA member company, working to IKECA standards
Pinnacle Specialty Services is a member company of the International Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Association, which publishes the industry standards for cleaning, inspection, and maintenance. Certification is held by technicians rather than by the company, and there is a certified technician on every crew. Inspectors and insurers reference the IKECA cleaning standard alongside NFPA 96.
Verify our IKECA membership →- Certified technicians on every crew
- Work performed in accordance with NFPA 96 and IKECA standards
- Uniformed, badged technicians
Bonded and insured
We carry $4,000,000 in general liability coverage. The company is bonded. Certificates of insurance are provided on request, and we will name your entity as an additional insured where a contract requires it.
- $4,000,000 general liability
- Bonded
- Certificates of insurance provided on request, including additional insured endorsements
SAM.gov registered
We maintain an active registration in the System for Award Management, with our entity ID available on request. That registration is what makes public sector work reachable directly rather than only as a subcontractor. We do not hold federal contracts today, and we would rather state that than let a contracting officer discover it.
- Active SAM.gov registration, entity ID on request
- Set up for formal solicitation responses
- Capability statement available for procurement
This is what you receive after every visit.
The part that has to hold up in front of an inspector, an underwriter, or a survey team.
Photograph before we touch it
Every accessed area is photographed in the condition we found it. That establishes the baseline, and it is what lets a report claim honestly what changed.
Record what could not be reached
Anything that could not be completed is documented with the reason. Omitting it is what makes a service report unusable to the person who has to defend it.
Label on site, report to follow
The dated NFPA 96 compliance sticker is applied before the crew leaves. The written report follows as a PDF within the two weeks NFPA 96 sets under 12.6.15.
Keep a copy
Service records are maintained per customer in organized digital files. If a report goes missing, a facilities manager changes, or a claim needs history, we can reissue it.
Capability statement
A one-page summary for contracting officers, purchasing teams, and facilities directors: company data, certifications, registration details, core competencies, formatted the way public sector procurement expects to receive it.

Thomas Ambrose, Owner
Client-facing reports pass an ownership review before they are released. That review is a fixed step in the process rather than a courtesy, and it is why the documentation reads the same whichever crew was on site.
Every account has one accountable contact with the authority to commit to a date, a scope change, or a correction without escalating it. Crews are assigned to accounts and stay with them.
What to ask any exhaust contractor
Including us. If a contractor cannot answer these quickly and in writing, that is itself the answer.
- Are your technicians certified, and by whom?
- Can you provide a certificate of insurance naming our facility as an additional insured?
- Will the report include photographs of the interior of the ductwork?
- How will you document any section you cannot reach?
- What frequency are you recommending, and which NFPA 96 Table 12.4 category is that based on?
- If the duct run has no access panels, do you install them or skip those sections?
- If we fail a re-inspection after your service, what happens?
