Do You Know What Your Carbon Footprint Is?
  Jorgensen’s experience has demonstrated that implementation of energy conservation and sustainability initiatives not only reduces our clients’ environmental footprint, it also makes good business sense. Financial benefits include lower operating costs, competitive return on investments, improved productivity through enhanced work environments, and the intrinsic value achieved through positive public perception, and the support and engagement of employees, visitors, and partner organizations.

Jorgensen’s statement of sustainability:
  Jorgensen Facilities Services is committed to long-term sustainability by providing quality, cost-effective solutions that stand the test of time. Quality building operations and maintenance is a core action to a future with less greenhouse gas emissions and a more sustainable planet.
  Jorgensen’s approach to sustainability is grounded in deep knowledge, an ethic of transparency, and industry leading expertise. This approach ensures that we integrate sustainability into all facets of facility operations and maintenance including decision making, activity guides, and planning. We offer more than green cleaning programs. We offer comprehensive and expert services for companies interested in the next level of sustainability.
Jorgensen’s goal is to provide continuous improvement of its core competency of facilities management on a fundamental level, including systems, processes and people. By evaluating, conducting maintenance or repair work and analyzing the performance metrics of assets, Jorgensen believes that it can offer the most effective long-term sustainability benefits through the provision of quality, cost-effective solutions that stand the test of time. Sustainability-based operations and maintenance include traditional energy management programs such as energy efficiency projects, utility tracking and reporting as well as real-time consumption monitoring and corrective action. These are in addition to energy and sustainability considerations in facility inspections and facility condition assessments, financial analysis for replacement expenses, and disciplined monitoring of operations and the adjustment of utility consumption. This comprehensive integration with facility operations & maintenance can be summarized in the criteria for LEED EB O&M certification, but the depth of detail in Jorgensen's implementation is unique and expert. From compressor oil options to asset management of key sustainability related feature assets, Jorgensen's sustainability-based maintenance & operations program results in the minimization of a building’s environmental impact, reduced operational costs, and the optimization of the maintenance resources already in place.
Jorgensen’s Sustainability Program: FIRM™

Our advantage over others to reduce energy and water consumption, improve energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and lower operating costs are achieved through an integrated methodology. Jorgensen’s Facility Integrated Resource Management™ program (FIRM™) was purposely named in an attempt to signify the importance and added value of an integrated approach.

Jorgensen’s FIRM™ program is also distinct in intentionally focusing on training and development of key stakeholders throughout the process of service delivery. We strongly believe that our efforts to reduce expenses and environmental impacts can only be augmented by sharing knowledge, ideas, and experiences.
