Raba Kistner Facilities unique ability to test components of existing installations offers clients a greater level of confidence that our designs will substantially improve overall performance.

Furthermore, our proprietary process for managing the lifecycle costs of a building, Program Management Plus (PM+), addresses risk issues not normally covered by the original design, and plans for costs associated with the operation and maintenance of a facility for several years after its original occupancy. Your investment should provide a return for the duration of your facility s lifetime. Raba Kistner Facilities has a comprehensive approach to help ensure that goal is met.
