Building Performance Optimization (BPO)

Buildings have complex infrastructures and physical plants that need to be maintained and operated effectively.  Occupants rely on facility professionals to ensure that the systems are safe, secure and reliable.  Maintaining a building is just the first step in optimizing the performance.  Many buildings with complex systems and equipment require not only to maintained but to be managed in accordance with a plan to optimize their performance.  This requires professionals who understand the myriad system in buildings and what makes them tick!
