As we always do with our customers, we maintain a relationship with the district staff after a project is completed. As other issues arose in the district, we were there to help develop solutions and rapidly implement a project, such as the wastewater treatment plant and auditorium renovations – not just energy efficiency projects. Our management team keeps in touch proactively, always looking out for the customer’s best interests. As a result, we have completed multiple projects, never missing a deadline, or exceeding the budgeted pricing.

LED lighting retrofits as well as stadium lighting and ceiling replacement were included in the initial complex project.

We have stayed very engaged with the district team since the project start. As other needs were identified, we served as the district’s trusted advisor and developed solutions. As a result, we have completed two other projects without ever missing a deadline or exceeding the budgeted pricing.
