Franklin Homes

When Franklin Homes of Russellville, Alabama was taken over by new owners they wanted to cut costs, improve safety and increase quality. Owners acknowledged the opportunity for operational savings in lighting efficiency, plus no out of pocket expense through the use of a Technology Service Agreement (TSA). Utilizing a TSA allowed for the installation of improved lighting throughout the manufacturing plant that saw significant degradation due to poor maintenance over time.
