Rosendin Electric Receives 2016 DBIA Project/Team Award for Los Angeles Valley College Monarch Center Project

Excellence Award in Educational Facility Category Presented for Creative Design-Build Collaboration and Expediting Solutions in the Field.

La Palma, CA, USA — Rosendin Electric (http://www.rosendin.com), one of the nation’s largest private electrical contractors and an employee-owned company, has received a 2016 Project/Team Award from the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA) for its contribution to the construction of the Los Angeles Valley College Monarch Center. The Monarch Center was one of three projects selected in the Educational Facilities category. Earlier this year, the Monarch Center project also received an Electrical Excellence Award from the National Electrical Contractors’ Association (NECA).

DBIA is the only organization in the United States dedicated to defining, teaching, and promoting best practices for construction design-build. To be considered for an award, a project must demonstrate the application of DBIA-defined design-build best practices, including bringing together team members during the proposal process, as well as close coordination from the design development stage through field construction and project completion.

The Monarch Center project represents a successful collaborative design-build project that offered Los Angeles Valley College the best design and value based on criteria, including mitigating any additional costs with expedited design-build solutions to address issues encountered in the field. Part of the challenge was completing the project without disrupting daily operations on the Los Angeles Valley College campus. The completed structure has a unique architectural design and houses the College’s bookstore, cafeteria, health services center, and other faculty and student facilities. The project was completed in 27 months at a cost of $46,661,760.

“The completed Monarch Center has an innovative design and interesting lighting and design features, such as roof lighting and a reflective canopy that eliminates the need for ground lighting,” said Dan Domenici, Project Manager for Rosendin Electric. “By working closely with the lead contractor, McCarthy Building Companies, and other project partners from the outset, we were able to overcome some unexpected challenges. Receiving recognition from the DBIA is something the entire design-build team can be proud of.”

Profiles of the winning 2016 design-build projects are available on the DBIA web site. Additional innovative design-build construction projects spanning education, transportation, technology, data centers, healthcare, and other industries are available on the Rosendin Electric web site, http://www.rosendin.com.

Rosendin Electric Launches New Website To Profile Breadth of Capabilities and Promote Online Collaboration

Rosendin.com Gets a New Look with More Details on Specialty Divisions, Projects, Events, History, and a New Subcontractor Portal.

San Jose, CA, USA (February 23, 2015) — Rosendin Electric, one of the nation’s largest private electrical contractors and an employee-owned company, today announced the launch of a new website to reflect the company’s diverse construction and engineering capabilities and activities, and the company has added a new portal for subcontractors to manage their information.

The new website provides an immediate snapshot of Rosendin Electric’s services, including Design-Build Engineering, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and renewable energy. Rosendin Electric is a pioneer in Lean Construction best practices and has been an innovator in streamlining construction practices using mobile communications and networking technologies. The new website also provides a showcase for the company’s construction projects, including work in commercial construction, transportation, solar and wind power, and low-voltage wiring.

A new addition to Rosendin.com is a Subcontractor Portal that allows partner contractors to log in to access information about payment status, insurance certificates, W-9 status, and other documentation. Each subcontractor is assigned a secure account that they use to share documents, paperwork, and invoices for review and approval. The portal will become the primary means of communicating with contractors and Rosendin Electric executives predict that providing a self-service portal will save hours in administrative time and speed payment processing.

“We continue to incorporate online resources into our everyday operations,” said Sam Lamonica, CIO of Rosendin Electric. “The launch of this new website with the Subcontractor Portal marks the next step in promoting online partner collaboration. We expect to use the new website as a springboard to expand our online capabilities to continue to streamline workflow and business processes.”

Rosendin Electric is very involved with the community in every region where the company maintains an office, not only through its construction work, but also through community projects and goodwill activities. The new website will serve as a means to communicate with the communities they serve and profile projects that serve those communities.

The new website also shows Rosendin Electric’s international reach. The company now has 13 regional offices serving regions across the country, and the company has been responsible for projects in Israel, Sweden, and Guam. There also is a company timeline dating back to its founding in 1919, and a profile of Rosendin Electric’s commitment to teamwork, quality, service, and integrity.

“We are a very old company working on the cutting edge of electrical construction and this website more closely reflects who we are,” said Tom Sorley, Chairman and CEO of Rosendin Electric. “Rosendin Electric has always been dedicated to attracting the best talent available and building a business with national reach and positive local community impact. Our new online presence allows us to share more details about our industry and community involvement and more closely collaborate with our partners.”

To facilitate recruiting and community outreach, Rosendin Electric has added a list of current job openings and expanded its social media reach. The new website has been designed to be more easily accessible on mobile devices as well, since more of today’s users are browsing the web using smartphones and tablet computers.

Overhauling Your Home Lighting – Your Baltimore Electrician Can Do It

There are many changes you can make to your home to completely change the atmosphere in each and every room. By making subtle changes to paint color and furniture orientation, you can drastically change the flow and feel of any room. If you consult with an electrician in Baltimore MD such as Kite and Key Electric, however, they will point to your lighting. Although making changes to your interior lighting may be one of the last things that you think to do, it can actually make one of the most dramatic changes possible. Lighting has one of the strongest effects on our mood, making it one of the most effective modifications that you can make.

Interior Lighting

Start by analyzing the interior of your home from room to room. Give each room its own section on a piece of paper and make notes of the atmosphere that you would like in each area. Your bedroom, for example, should be warm, inviting and cozy to promote sleeping. Living areas should have versatile lighting to accommodate many different situations.

After you have written down the mood you are looking for in each room, think about the type of lighting that reflects that mood. If you are having a tough time, ask your professional Baltimore electrician, Kite and Key Electric, for recommendations. You can also visit a local store to browse through their options to get ideas. For many rooms, you can accomplish the lighting effects that you desire by replacing fixtures, having ceiling fans installed and adding recessed lighting. Other rooms may call for using lamps in addition to your fixtures.
Landscape Lighting

When you are changing your lighting, don’t leave out the exterior of your home. Landscape lighting has many purposes. It highlights some of the more appealing portions of your landscaping, helps you navigate your yard in the evening and even improves safety by increasing visibility. Much in the way that you want to create a certain feeling inside of your house, you should have a goal in mind when choosing landscape lighting. Rather than trying to do it all yourself, you should consider speaking to Kite and Key Electric, an electrician Baltimore MD trusts, before you start your project. While some of the do-it-yourself kits may be appealing, professionally installed landscape lighting by an electrician in Baltimore looks much better, and it also lasts longer and can be safer than other solutions.

Choosing the Right Bulb

Believe it or not, the bulbs that you use in your lamps and fixtures can be just as important as the fixtures yourself. As lighting technologies have advanced, the varieties of bulbs available have increased greatly. Where in the past, you chose your bulb largely on wattage alone, you now have more options. For starters, you must choose between LED bulbs, incandescent bulbs and compact fluorescent. Each has its pros and cons, so choose the option that works best for you. If you have any questions regarding the different bulb technologies, don’t hesitate to ask Kite and Key Electric, a licensed Baltimore electrician. In addition to the type of light, you can now choose between lighting types. Many lights now come in “warm”, “daylight” and more direct lighting formats. These bulbs have all been specially designed to match a certain atmosphere. A warm light, for example, is more suited to a room like your bedroom, where you don’t need very bright light. A daylight-simulating bulb may work better in a living room or office area.

Regardless of the amount of lighting that you want to change, you will be amazed at the results. This fairly simple change can transform a room, making it feel like an entirely new place. Furthermore, updating your lighting fixtures can also help improve the value of your home. Make sure to call a professional electrician in Baltimore MD, Kite and Key Electric, to ensure that everything is installed safely.

Outstanding Electrician in Fairfax VA Warms Up Our Christmas Holiday

The holiday season was upon us, and it was time to set up the tree and decorations. To get into the spirit, I put on some old vinyl recordings of carols. My wife, Sue, took care of the tasteful part of the decorations, placing items around the living room and hanging the ornaments on the tree, while I handled calling an electrician in Fairfax VA to take care of the outdoor Christmas lighting.

We had a tradition of calling our Fairfax electrician to hang the outdoor lighting. After all, we always had enough to do with all of our Christmas home decorating and the lighting on the tree. The outside lighting is always a small job for our electrician in Fairfax because we only hang our holiday lighting on the front roofline of our house and down the sides of the garage. We have a scarcity of outlets, and so we’ve never really invested that much in outside lighting or decorations. Sometimes I regret it, especially when I see the way our neighbor, Mr. Thompson, having such a big show of holiday lights in his front yard every year. They even have carols playing on loudspeakers; and, to top it all off, a small sled with elves that races around on a track. People cruise by our streets every year, enjoying every moment of the Thompson’s holiday lighting spectacle.

This year I guess we had too many things plugged in on one circuit, because as soon as I plugged in the tree lights, the room went dark and the carols dipped in pitch as the record slowed than stopped. “I told you that we were using too many lights,” my wife said. At least I didn’t have to see her I-told-you-so expression in the dark. Fortunately, I was able to find my way through the room thanks to the brightness of the lights coming through the windows from Thompson’s display.

“It’s not a matter of using too many lights,” I said as I found the circuit box. “This house can no longer handle the amount of electricity we demand. We need to upgrade the wiring” I told her. “It’s old and it wasn’t designed for all the gizmos we use.” Luckily for us, we knew I could count on our local electrician Fairfax VA, Certified Electrical Technologies, to solve the problem.

Shopping for Christmas gifts was last on our holiday to-do list, and we suddenly both had the same thought at the same time.we couldn’t think of a better gift for our Christmas present to each other than the peace of mind of knowing our electrical was up to date and safe. “Seriously, my wife said, let’s get an estimate and this will be our gift to each other this year.” We knew that we’d be in the best of hands with Certified Electrical Technologies, our licensed Fairfax electrician, so my wife made a note to give them a call right away. We always kept their number in our rolodex under electrician Fairfax VA, so that it was easy to find.

Based on our past years of experience, we knew that we could count on Certified Electrical Technologies. After all, they answer their phones 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The next day my wife called our electrician Fairfax VA, and she was able to schedule an estimate for the following day. When our Fairfax electrician came out to do the estimate, he was thorough, professional, and (as always) gave a fair quote for the electrical work we needed done. When I reviewed the estimate with Sue, we both agreed that the price was right and that we should schedule the upgrade as soon as possible.

This year we both felt an extreme sense of inner peace during the holiday season, – which was just what we had hoped for – knowing that our electrical safety issues were solved and that the electrical work was done by the most competent licensed electrician in Fairfax VA, Certified Electrical Technologies. What a gift!
