Resilient from the start: Dependable power, safety, and sustainability.

Every enterprise depends upon reliable power systems. And the challenges are daunting: unstable grid infrastructure, rising energy costs, shrinking budgets, increasing building demands, code compliance, and more. ABM has invested heavily in microgrid and uptime power solutions so facilities operate independently, uninterrupted, and efficiently for years to come.

Power Up Performance

Your potential shouldn’t be grid-dependent

It’s a fact. New technologies and the facilities that power them are straining the grid. Public utilities can’t keep up with today’s demands. So facilities look to ABM Electrical Engineering Services for alternatives. Solar, storage, and generation enable continuity even in the face of extreme weather and deteriorating grid conditions.

Meet your lifecycle partner

Whether you’re considering new construction or upgrading infrastructure, everything must work together. The design stage is as important as commissioning and startup. ABM custom tailors solutions to best fit your needs. And self-performs installation and commissioning that meet current standards and certifications to improve the safety and productivity of your facility and employees. Onsite experts who know your system, as well as how to service and protect it.

Decommissioning can cause unexpected expenses. ABM helps facilities minimize OpEx and CapEx by anticipating needs. Our nationwide scale and strategic purchasing agreements reduce strain on your budget. The result? The right equipment, at the right time, at an affordable price. And the lights stay on.

Demand better Ops, lower OpEx

The ABM nationwide network of NETA technicians, electricians, power specialists, and electrical engineers helps organizations sustain long-lasting, cost-efficient strategies. Proactive maintenance, including system lifecycle assessments, ensures your equipment operates reliably for years to come.

Stay safe. Stay current.

Certified, qualified electrical maintenance saves lives, equipment, and costs—including fines, liability, and medical expenses. ABM delivers with:

  • 150 NETA technicians
  • Reliability testing and maintenance
  • Customized Training Program
  • Service expertise for high-, medium-, and low-voltage equipment
  • NFPA 70E Standard for Electrical Safety: ABM administers the tests and creates the follow-up plan to ensure NFPA 70B compliance

How it’s done: The Asset Management Program

A proactive maintenance program that:

  • Improves reliability
  • Increases equipment uptime
  • Equipment failure
  • Reduces operating & replacement costs

The ABM Asset Management Program (AMP) delivers supercharged customer service from a dedicated team. Our experts customize a unique program for your facility to safely manage your electrical distribution system by evaluating your operations, loss exposure, and potential for injury.

AMP protects against:

  • Accidents
  • Equipment failure
  • Unplanned costs

DID YOU KNOW?
Nearly 56% of injuries in 2020 were caused by direct exposure to electricity.1 Injuries and fatalities from electricity are attributed to shock, electrocution, arc flash, and arc blast.

Acquire the Expertise You Need

With two recent acquisitions, ABM is the clear industry leader in comprehensive energy solutions. RavenVolt provides everything facilities need for grid-interactive turnkey microgrid solutions. Quality Uptime Services delivers quality power continuity with equipment such as UPS, batteries, and capacitors.
