Despite the obvious downsides of the COVID-19 pandemic, this unprecedented event has certainly shifted people’s focus toward repairing environmental damages, and led them to pay closer attention to human health and wellness. The impact of such a massive storm can be seen across all sectors. Consider the construction and real estate sector, for instance. Building facility owners and managers are now more eager than ever to look at green buildingsolutions to improve residents’ health and occupant experience while reducing the environmental impact of the building.

However, it often becomes overwhelming for facility owners to choose the best route toward attaining this sustainability with so many new compliance protocols in the mix. What they now need is an experienced partner who not only can interpret the current sustainable building trends but also help in the efficient implementation of the same.

Enter Burgess Services.

A maven in the construction management space, Burgess Services leverages its experience in green buildings and multi-million dollar LEED projects to help facility owners, general contractors, and subcontractors make more informed decisions about their building construction/renovation projects. “We help our clients look at the ‘green big picture’ and determine the right products and processes that would aid them in bringing that picture to life,” says Denise Burgess, Vice President and General Counselof Burgess Services.

How it all started…

Notably, Burgess Services was founded by Denise’s father, Clyde Burgess, as a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) contractor company in 1974. The company recalibrated its strength and focus areas over the years to finally enter into the quality control and construction management space. Burgess Services, today, positions itself as one of the leaders in offering green building services. Burgess Services’ engineers are cross-trained in all construction and installation disciplines, and so as a team, the company can ensure that its clients’ building designs are sustainable. “We help our clients find the delicate balance between the needs of construction and their surrounding environment. Because, for us, going ‘green’ isn’t just an add-on factor in the project, it’s the heart of what we do every day for our HVAC, plumbing, piping, insulation, and smoke control offerings,” highlights Willie Shepherd, Vice President and General Counselof Burgess Services.

The unique value proposition of Burgess Services’ offerings can be best explained through a case study. A client from Denver, CO, recently sought Burgess Services’ help to renovate a facility as per specific green building standards. Burgess Services presented the client with a comprehensive list of different components necessary for sustainable building, along with various financing packages that would cover a significant part of their renovation cost. Once the project plan was finalized, Burgess Services collaborated with other construction solutions and services providers, and took a collaborative and cost-effective path toward ensuring that the renovation of the facility is successfully accomplished. “We not only worked tocreate a cost-optimized facility for the present but also ensured that the sustainability of the building is retained in the future as well,” comments Denise.

With many similar success stories under its hood, Burgess Services is now poised to evolve further in its role as a construction management partner and educator in the green building space. As an increasing number of facility owners and managers are now considering sustainable development ofresidential and mixed-use buildings, it is offering an opportunity to Burgess Services to collaborate with more clients. And while engaging with the clients to offer sustainable solutions, Burgess Services is also constantly keeping its finger on the pulse of recent trends and the changesthat are expected to emerge in the coming months. With a bullish attitudetoward the recent developments in the state of Colorado, Burgess Services is now laser-focused to intensify its drive for green revolution and create a world of difference in the construction tech space.
