As stay at home orders are lifted in many states, many businesses are planning for their full-scale re-openings. To many facilities managers, this means sites that have been either completely closed or only open for limited use will begin being fully utilized again, with brand new requirements.

DWM has put together the below toolkit to help make this transition easier for you and your team. Check it out below!

Top 4 Reopening Checklist

1. Re-key Locks & Update Security System Codes

The same staff may not be returning to work after COVID, be sure to protect your locations.

2. Verify HVAC PMs Were Completed

With restrictions being put in place at the same time many HVAC PMs were scheduled, there's a chance crucial pre-summer PMs were missed.

3. Check Light Bulbs and Ballast

Areas of many locations have been largely unoccupied for months, ensure all lights are in working order to give your stores a clean, bright look for customers re-entering for the first time.

4. Verify Reactive or Missed PMs for Pest Control

With restrictions being put in place at the same time many Pest Control PMs were scheduled, there's a chance crucial pre-summer PMs were missed.
