While critical facilities increase in number and prominence within the buildings industry, so do the pressures on the facility engineers who keep them going (and on the design engineers who plan them). Seeing these trends, Engineered Systems has launched this Critical Facilities microsite. Here, you can find white papers, bylined feature articles, upcoming events, and industry news with a tilt toward hospitals, data centers, hospitality venues, and other facilities who must operate reliably around the clock. We want to spotlight your firm's news, accomplishments, and ideas in this area; e-mail editor Robert Beverly at beverlyr@bnpmedia.com.
