Our team is excited to be participating and presenting next week at the Rocky Mountain APPA Conference in Tempe, AZ hosted by Arizona State University Facilities Development and Management. With its theme, "Thriving in the Heat," focusing on sustainability, resilience, and innovative facilities management in challenging climates, the event will bring educational facilities management leaders, university chief facilities officers, and business partners from across the Rocky Mountain region.

During the four days of professional development, educational panels, collaborative sessions, networking events, and more, Marx Okubo’s team will present on September 9 a session called "Fast Builds, Fast Failures: In a World of Collaborative Project Delivery, Why Do So Many Buildings Fail Shortly After Completion?" Our presenters, Gerard Lee, Vice President, AIA DBIA LEED, Courtney Wladyka, Co-director of Sustainability & Resilience, AIA, NCARB, Fitwel Amb and Rena Russ, Senior Associate, AIA LEED AP, will bring relevant, thought-provoking insights and pragmatic advice on this topic and look forward to engaging with attendees.
