His attention to detail, thoughtful and thorough review of documents and well-crafted responses to code issues were invaluable, and contributed greatly to the overall success of the project. His ability to clearly present and defend his position through his careful analysis and understanding of the applicable codes and regulations was instrumental in navigating the project smoothly through the Plan Check Approval process. Jonathan helped me, as an Architect, attain a clearer understanding and appreciation of issues related to accessibility"

"We recently contracted with ACS to provide consulting services on a complex multi-use building for UCSC’s Extension International Program. Jonathan’s services proved to be invaluable. He researched a complex array of often-contradictory regulations and prepared a report which was clear, concise, prepared on time, and under budget. We will continue to consult with ACS on all of our projects, which involve access issues. Our experience with ACS has confirmed that we cannot afford not to."

Phone calls were made to various companies and agencies in the greater San Francisco-San Jose-Monterey area during our quest for consultants. Access Compliance Services was the only company set up to work on the design phase and approached our library system like any other contractor getting ready to remodel an existing building."
