BAS Service Contract Helps Chemical Maker Save on HVAC Operation and Maintenance: Deal includes organized equipment-replacement plan

摘要

Dissatisfied with the costs of maintaining equipment and controls at its corporate headquarters in Memphis, Tenn., Buckman Laboratories International Inc., a manufacturer of specialty chemicals used in the pulp-and-paper, water-treatment, leather, coatings-and-plastics, wood, and agriculture industries, invited Johnson Controls Inc. to submit a proposal for maintenance of its building-automation system. The resulting service contract will save Buckman approximately 18 percent in HVAC operation and maintenance costs, protect assets, and provide a path to migration to newer technologies.
