In one of our most exciting updates to date, we are writing to let you know that we are in the midst of a big transformation. We are officially transitioning all of our companies to CertaSite. Since 2018, CertaSite has been thoughtfully and strategically partnering with and acquiring fire and life safety companies throughout the Midwest-companies whose previous owners have built for many years (in some cases decades) and who have assembled a dedicated workforce and a strong local presence. We look forward to building on those solid foundations by offering employees development and career advancement, and expanded, tech-enabled services to support customers. CertaSite is proud to be a part of what the previous owners have spent a lifetime building and we will honor their legacies as we elevate their fire and life safety services to new heights.
The COVID-19 pandemic has certainly been an unexpected situation resulting in nearly every state issuing stay-at-home orders to varying degrees and causing many businesses, facilities, and buildings to close and remain vacant and unattended while employees work remotely. This situation presents a new set of risks by leaving your buildings vulnerable and insecure. CertaSite wants to help by calling out common risks associated with leaving your buildings unattended, along with what you can do to mitigate those risks and the potential negative outcomes that could result.
With stay-at-home orders set to be lifted to varying degrees soon, building and facilities maintenance is of utmost importance as businesses across the country prepare to welcome back employees, vendors, and customers following lengthy closures from the COVID-19 pandemic.
CertaSite’s goal is to support you in your reopening efforts. With insight from top agencies and trade authorities, we have compiled a list of items that need to be maintained in your building/s and operations during your absence, as well as before you reopen, to ensure you are prepared for when your facility is ready to welcome employees and visitors back in again.
As more and more states across the country are requiring that non-essential business shut down temporarily, there are a number of industries and services that have been deemed by their governing authorities as essential and have therefore been granted permission to remain open and operational during the shutdowns. In all states in which CertaSite operates, fire and life safety has been deemed an essential business and remains open for regular service, repair and emergency service work to all businesses.
But why is fire and life safety considered an essential business? We're glad you asked!
