Building automation systems integrator and facilities consulting for federal and enterprise campuses
The Building People designs and deploys building automation infrastructure—Niagara, Honeywell, Siemens, Schneider Electric—with a heavy engineering and operations hiring mix (76 engineers, 38 ops staff) focused on control system installation, retro-commissioning, and federal compliance. Active project backlog shows sustained demand in hardware replacement, smart building expansion, and federal deferred-maintenance work, while pain points cluster around DoD RMF compliance and operational cost reduction—suggesting federal/defense sector concentration and margin pressure.
