Utility Facility Shared Practice Meeting

• October 27, 2026

Replacing a roof or upgrading HVAC is hard enough. Doing it while dispatch keeps running, crews keep rolling, and a control center stays online around the clock is a different challenge.

This month, RE Management Solutions (REMS), a Baltimore-based owner’s representative and project management firm serving utility clients, led a working session on what it really means to be “project ready”: construction ready and operationally ready. The session was built around three questions:

• Were we ready before we started?
• Are we in control while the work is underway?
• Did we receive a facility our operators can actually run?

Whether your projects are managed by facility staff, an internal PM group, or an outsourced project manager, the readiness process is the same. What changes is how much of your capital plan your team can take on.
