How Engineering Services Turn The Unknown Into Certainty
<p>Listen in as we focus on engineering services for noise control solutions, not as a product, but as a decision-making tool. We discuss why acoustical, noise, vibration, and seismic decisions are often unclear early in a project, what risks those unknowns create, and how engineering analysis helps teams reduce rework, improve accuracy, and meet demanding schedules, especially in high-stakes environments like data centers.</p><p>We are joined by Thomas Yuschak, who is the Vice President of Engineering at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener" href="https://kineticsnoise.com/">Kinetics Noise Control</a>, Joe Florer, the General Manager of Air Solutions at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener" href="https://mjec.com/">McMillan James</a>, and Logan Herkomer, Director of Sales, HVAC Market at Kinetics. And now, let's get started with today's conversation.</p>
