Meeting Summary

What happens when the approved lighting controls design is code compliant, but ownership and the G.C. reduce the scope for cost-saving purposes?  We’ll discuss strategies to address code non-compliance without losing site of design goals.

Codes and Standards are becoming more stringent, and a big part of the success is proper communication with all team members. We understand the importance of providing the commercial client with a guide for a successful build while educating them to make sure the specified products are properly installed, commissioned, and in compliance.
