Cotality deeply believes in the power of extended collaboration—beyond internal teams and with experts who elevate customer experiences. Working alongside top industry leaders is critical to understanding the complex, nuanced needs of property insurance and restoration. For Cotality, one of those key experts is Brandon Burton, former Vice President of Technical Applications.
Although Brandon has launched his own venture, Burton Indoor Environmental Consulting (BIEC), he continues tocollaborate with Cotality to educate restoration professionals on various topics.
Brandon will resume hosting Cotality’s monthly TechnicallySpeaking webinar series for restoration professionals. In these sessions, he breaks down data-driven techniques and practical logic to strengthen restoration practices. The next webinar, focusing on the topic of leveraging psychrometry, will take place on Tuesday, August 25.
For more than five years, Brandon has hosted the Technically Speaking webinars to help restoration businesses simplify complex technical topics and apply critical principles to daily operations. This engaging series delivers practical takeaways and offers valuable continuing education opportunities, including IICRC continuing education credits for attendees.
Brandon knows his way around crawl spaces, just as he is deeply familiar with the governing body that sets the standards for property restoration. He has served as the ANSI/IICRC Standards Chair for over seven years and held leadership roles within the IICRC for more than two decades.
Clark Hawkins, Senior Product Manager at Cotality and lead for the Mitigate platform, notes that Burton’s deep expertise has been vital throughout the software’s evolution; he has empowered hundreds of users to maximize its full potential, alongside other components of the digital restoration ecosystem.
“Brandon has been instrumental in making technical restoration education more accessible, actionable, and relevant for professionals across the industry,” Clark says. “I’m thrilled that he will leverage BIEC to continue bringing this valuable expertise to our clients and webinar attendees.”
During the upcoming webinar, Brandon will briefly discuss BIEC, the independent onsultancy through which he provides clarity, confidence, and guidance onpractical solutions across the property restoration space.
“I am excited to launch this collaboration between Cotality and BIEC,” Brandon says. “With my transition to professional consulting, I am fully focused on ‘Advocating for the Technical Truth in Restoration’, an initiative at the forefront of my mission. Moving forward, the Technically Speaking series will place a direct emphasis on the standard of care and its practical application.”
