Introduction: A vision is created
As with any story, it’s good to start at the beginning! Our visionary is Mark Leafstedt, PE.
- Mark worked for a number of years in the equipment controls arena, where he quickly learned the intricate balance among the various systems within a building, as well as the problems inherent with them.
- Mark conceptualized a company to address those issues and to pursue his passions: solving problems and conserving energy.
- To that end, he and Cristi, Chief Administrative Officer & his life-partner, created a professional engineering firm
specializing in independent, third party testing and commissioning of mechanical, electrical, climate control, security, and smoke control systems for the construction industry.
- Total # of employees in 1998 = 1!
