Facilities boom follows baby boom

Posted by Jeff Dickey- Chasin on Tue, Aug 19, 2008 @ 02:16 PM

The baby boom generation has moved as one observer said 'like a pig through a python', changing everything as it goes. Now that the leading edge of the boom is reaching retirement - which means a greater need for healthcare.

What does that have to do with the MEP industry? Think facilities - hospitals, clinics, physical therapy facilities. From Tennessee to Iowa, new buildings are going up, existing buildings are being retrofitted for higher energy efficiency - and jobs for facilities managers, facilities maintenance technicians, building automation technicians, and HVAC installers are everywhere.

So what are you waiting for? As they get older, you'll get richer!
