When cost isn't the limiting factor

Changing the whole focus

 

With the SECO LoanSTAR Loan program for municipalities, public schools and hospitals, the PACE Loan Program for commercial businesses, independent schools, hospitals and residential with five units or more. Then with the Byline Financial Group "Equipment Leasing" program taking the cost bearer down for those who only want to convert their lighting to LED lighting. When a business, school, hospital city or apartment can basically get their LED retrofit accomplished with nothing upfront and immediate saving every month, then the focus shifts from “How cheap can I get it?” to “I want the best!”. This is very different than how almost everyone thinks. So if cost wasn’t an issue, what would you want? Then energy efficiency, quality of light, less glare and capabilities, dimming, RGB color changing capabilities would be of greater emphasis. These are areas that most procurement officers don’t think about but when you have access to money specifically allocated to upgrading your lighting and it costs less to pay it back than you are paying currently it changes the whole focus. Now “If you could get it the highest quality lighting what would you want?” Energy efficiency is still a major factor because that would reduce the ROI, less glare and reduced maintenance would be a factor.

 

First things first, you have to be eligible, that means that cities, schools and hospitals need to get their paperwork in for the SECO LoanSTAR Loan Program. The deadline is November 15^th. Then for the SECO LoanSTAR loan program and the PACE Loan Program for commercial applications, businesses, private schools, hospitals residential up to five units have to inventory exactly what you want to replace and decide what you want to change to.
