Maintainability vs Constructability in Systems Design
In this episode Mark, Clay, Jim, and Nick discuss the balance between maintainability and constructability in systems design related to HVAC and process equipment. This is a really interesting conversation and allowed us as individuals to re think some of our conventional thoughts on systems design when related to maintainability and constructability. Are the two inherently connected? Or can you focus on one more than the other in a design? Tune into the episode to hear our thoughts, they just might challenge yours!

Initial Cost vs Life Cycle Cost in BMS Related Projects
In this episode Clay, Nick, and Mark discuss cost considerations with new or retrofit BMS related projects, specifically initial cost compared to lifecycle cost. A key part of this process is accurately projecting the life cycle costs associated with the proposed project and comparing different options with Net Present Value (NPV). Our team of experts discusses how to generate a cash flow diagram and why NPV is so valuable in determining the financial impacts of different options within a project. We also discuss that although one option may seem better than others with NPV, there are many other things to consider and ultimately it us up to the owner to decide. This is a very engaging and relatable discussion on cost considerations, tune in for a great discussion!
