February 2018 Property Solutions Newsletter

Hello Friend,

It's Olympic time!

For those of you that follow the Olympics, why do you? To cheer on a particular athlete or sport? To learn about a foreign land hosting the events? To watch nations come together? Whatever the reason, we love the Olympics and all that the games embody!

This month, our January "Property Solutions" newsletter is focused on "Going for the Gold." Our "For Your Business" section shares ways to make your property "shine" through good maintenance. We also share our experience with getting "Lean" and the many benefits of the Lean Manufacturing Process. In the "Our Team" section you will meet our newest team member. Finally, in our "Good News" section, we share a few Olympic links to get you to the latest on the games.

Best wishes from our team to yours as you go for the gold!

What is not to love about the Olympics!? As we have a love of all things "construction" we thought this video highlighting the construction of the buildings for the 2018 Olympic games would be a great video to share in our "Good News" section. This video, titled "The Buildings of the Winter Olympics: PyeongChang 2018: The B1M" features the amazing construction involved in the 2018 Winter Olympic games and the stories behind the designs and potential for future use and/or recycling of the various sites.
