How has Hexmodal improved your facilities engagement score?
Ronald Joly: During COVID we were short staffed, couldn't get enough help. We're looking for ways to automate a lot of the technology for our advantage on that. And I was at one of the ASHE events and you guys were here. So I stopped through, look at the booth, saw the automation. I was a skeptical at first, with the technology, the with the technology, the life, especially the life safety equipment. And we went ahead and we trialed it. Chris sent us out the demos. we trialed it and it was, it was phenomenal. It actually, it took the work a couple of our FTEs during the time period we actually did it order to be, to get our surveys done, we had to contract out for those specific PMs So the cost was a no brainer. I mean, there was no upfront cost and we end up we've been charged on a subscription versus actually paying these contractors to go around and spend all that time monthly to do your exit signs. And the batteries and then the whole stay there, hold those and then annually as well for those 90 minutes. But a lot of those exit signs weren't all on, didn't have a switch to turn them off. You'd have to actually flip a breaker which would impact other areas as well. So, having this all automatically test on its own, being able to access those reports and get those report numbers on my phone when I'm not even in the office and making sure that we're compliant was a life changer for us. Not only did increase the, the time that my guys actually, I had spent walking around, pushing buttons when their value was turning wrenches. it actually was a huge coworker satisfaction, help with our engagement scores because they felt kind of useless as well with their own pushing buttons when they could have been turning wrenches. So it's, it's been a huge plus for us. I can't say enough about it. If people haven't done it yet they just need to get on board with it they just need to get on board with it yeah
