Maintaining Comfort & Reducing Costs for International Agri-Center

At BMI, we understand the importance of maintaining a comfortable and reliable environment for facilities like the International Agri-Center. Our partnership with the center helps them flatline their operations budget. We maintain and optimize their HVAC systems for peak performance. CFO Lee Ann Hakl shares how our fixed-cost maintenance program has provided the peace of mind they need to focus on their day-to-day operations.

Maintaining Comfort for Guests and Events

The International Agri-Center’s Heritage Complex is a hub of activity, housing office space, meeting rooms, a banquet hall and even an antique farm equipment museum. With tenants and staff on-site, maintaining a comfortable temperature is essential, especially during extreme weather. “You certainly don’t want to have a wedding or a business meeting in the middle of summer without AC,” Lee Ann emphasizes. Our team at BMI ensures that everything runs smoothly, keeping the complex cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Fixed-Cost Maintenance for Budget Stability

One of the key benefits of our partnership with the International Agri-Center is our fixed-cost maintenance agreement. We provide preventive maintenance, along with repairs and replacements, all for a flat fee. This predictable cost structure allows Lee Ann and her team to manage their operations budget without worrying about unexpected expenses. “They presented a neat opportunity in that they would take care of everything for a flat fee,” she explains. Our approach ensures the center’s HVAC systems are always running optimally, without the stress of fluctuating costs.

Comprehensive Care from Start to Finish

With 17+ HVAC units on-site, the International Agri-Center requires comprehensive service. Our technicians handle everything from ice machines to boilers, taking care of every aspect of their facility. “We take care of the customer from start to finish just to make sure they’re satisfied,” Lee Ann shares. Our commitment to providing top-tier service ensures that their operations run smoothly year-round.

By partnering with BMI Mechanical, the International Agri-Center was able to control costs and gain confidence that their HVAC systems are maintained and functioning at their best. Our fixed-cost maintenance program gives them peace of mind. This allows them to focus on delivering exceptional experiences to their guests and tenants.
