Bjorklund, Vice President and Service Line Leader, will be presenting results published in the Airport Cooperative Research Program Report 139: “Optimizing Airport Building Operations and Maintenance through Retrocommissioning: A Whole-Systems Approach.” The session will outline how airports are beginning to utilizing retrocommissioning processes to improve the operation and performance of their facilities.
