The "clean" solution would be to create an iemss.layout file for LyX (see
the Extended guide of the Help menu) but this might be an overkill for a
one-time use.


Did you try export to LaTeX and compiling the *.tex file? Are there error
messages or warnings?
 
Also comparing the *.tex file to the tex-example might help.

This is what iems.sty wants:
