LMU Facilties management and Lights
We are purposing to Loyola Marymount University (faculties management) to be more responsible and doing that with lights. Changing current lights to LED lights and want to show how this is better for the environment, and how it would pay back. LMU only has to buildings with LED lights. Facilities Management (FM) is a division of Loyola Marymount University that seeks to provide facility services. FM is responsible for the maintenance, repair, and upkeep of LMU’s buildings. In addition to these responsibilities, FM is also responsible for the disposal and sorting of refuse on LMU’s campus.

LED- please research which LED companies are the best to reach the goal we are looking for and explain why this company is the best.
¦ How we’ll measure how our solution will help save money
¦ How much electricity it’ll save/tangible benefits (we need charts so maybe
LMU use 0.15$ per kwh
a reference to table in the appendix is helpful here)
¦ How long the payback period is, etc. (maybe another graphic here)
