Project/
Construction Management
Lack the time to concentrate on your company's
project? Need someone who understands how to process projects and
get the best prices and service from vendors? Need to finish a project
on time and be proud to have been involved? Need someone who knows
what quality should cost?
The difference between Project Team Leadership
by Facilities First and conventional project management is much
more than semantics. The team concept signifies the willingness
and commitment of the participants to work toward specific goals,
which when achieved, meet the requirements of all participants.
Leadership signifies an ability to establish goals and performance
standards, and manage a creative group in an environment of mutual
respect to drive a project to successful completion.
The proper selection of team members is vital
to the ultimate success of the project. Working closely with you,
we act as your representative in all matters pertaining to the project.
Every unit of the project team plays a critical role in the successful
outcome of the project. All members of the team must have commitment
to supporting the team concept. They must also share the responsibility
for the success of the project through and beyond occupancy. We
provide leadership you can rely on to proactively orchestrate all
vendors including architects, interior designers, contractors, and
miscellaneous vendors for furniture, information technology, security,
phone systems, cabling, etc.

Energy Audits
We have
a proven three-step process that will save you money on your utilities
expenses or there is NO cost to you. Not only does our approach
afford you minimum risk, but it provides guaranteed savings with
simple payback on your terms.
PHASE I - The Opportunity Analysis
After spending about an hour with you, and then conducting a brief
inspection of your facility, we use our years of experience and
expertise to determine if opportunities exist for significant savings.
There is no cost to you for this Phase. We identify the order of
magnitude savings and then ask if you would like a proposal for
an Energy Audit.
PHASE II - The Energy Audit
With your concurrence, we submit a proposal to conduct an Energy
Audit of a selected facility. We suggest starting with just one
building so that you can gain confidence in how we work. The typical
cost for this audit is $0.10 - $0.20/ SF.However, we GUARANTEE in
our proposal that our Audit will identify savings in the range and
with the simple payback period that we identified in our Opportunity
Analysis, or you are not charged for the Audit.
PHASE III - The Implementation
After you have reviewed the results of the Audit, you decide whether
you want to proceed with the implementation of any of the initiatives
that we have identified (the costs for implementation will have
been identified in the audit).We GUARANTEE the savings we
project, or you are refunded the difference between Projected and
Actual.
