The cost of the Guarantee and Inspection Service (GIS) fee in your project is based on the architectural woodwork contract amount. The GIS cost is part of the tendered lump sum.
Please note that there is not a new calculator at this time. There are a few different calculation processes among the chapters, and we are determining how to proceed with this nationally. If you need help with calculations, send an email and we will help you however we can.

As of January 1, 2023
1 – CONTRACT VALUE refers to the value of the project’s GIS-specified architectural woodwork.
2 – GIS FEE refers to the fee AWMAC charges to the manufacturer who in turn receives the GIS (and 2-year warranty if an AWMAC Manufacturer member) on a project’s GIS-specified woodwork. Fees may be flat or percentage-based.
With every project you take on, you want to avoid pitfalls like risk exposure and frustrated clients. AWMAC’s GIS ensures a path to success… delivering quality architectural woodwork to a satisfied client. AWMAC’s GIS is a national program that has evolved over the past 18 years and guarantees architectural woodwork meets or exceeds AWMAC’s STANDARDS. An AWMAC inspection isn’t just a stamp of approval. Think of it as the ultimate way to achieve peace of mind with those who matter most: your customers.
