We’ve worked with Manhattan School of Music for many years now. Through partnership and hard work from their staff, we’ve been able to move from a culture of reactive and deferred maintenance to one that is proactive and data-driven. Our analytics and operational familiarity with the facility now allow us to identify and resolve problems as, or before, they happen.
