To this very day, it remains a truly unique process that establishes verifiable operational standards and an example of how independent peer review can provide a benefit in preparedness for response, and at the times of response. Both classifiers and the team undergoing IEC/R learn from one another, and this interaction is indeed highly valuable, because, in an earthquake, they will be the same people working closely together, to help save lives.

直至今日，IEC/R仍然是独特的测评体系。该体系建立了可检验的行动标准，体现了独立的同行评价在响应准备及行动中的价值。测评专家和受评队伍之间相互学习，这种互动极具意义，因为他们为挽救更多生命，在地震救援工作中密切合作。
