Building Engineers are Keystone
to Energy Management
Success
(in BOMA Magazine at www.boma.org,
accessible to BOMA members.)
For the January/February 2010 edition of The BOMA Magazine, BOC
instructor Ray Congdon, Director of
Engineering for Group Health at CB Richard Ellis, has authored “Beyond
the Boiler Room: Building Engineers are the Keystone to Energy
Management Success.” Congdon makes the case for building
operator training, specifically BOC training, and reflects on
the changing role of the facilities maintenance manager. “The
days of the operator adjusting valves in the boiler room are
history... Investing in training on the efficient maintenance
and operation of their buildings must be a top priority for property
professionals who want to succeed in this new direction.” |
