Independent Industry Leadership

IDEA is led by a 12-member board of directors, appointed by two industry trade associations: The Door and Access Systems Manufacturers Association (DASMA), and the International Door Association (IDA).

Once appointed, directors act independently during their three-year term, and are not compensated for their service.
