Just because a sign manufacturer (often a small, local company) uses all UL listed products does not mean the sign assembly is.
UL for example has a program in place for years that allow any size sign company to self certify their products. I have always required proof that all signs, regardless of size or how big the company that made it are listed and labeled as an assembly. Although I initially got some grumbling I soon found out most companies already had the program in place.
Be careful to read chapter 6 of the NEC and make sure that during plan review you are ensuring that the signs to be installed are listed and labeled. This is not new news to the sign industry but it may be news to inspectors in your area.
