Selected Success Stories:

The following are some examples of how we have provided our customers the decisive edge to help them achieve
practical and lasting solutions to their challenges.

  • The PERTAN Group has developed industrial benchmark models used by the EPA  to develop Energy Star®
    program ranking policy.   

  • The Manual developed by The PERTAN Group, Economic Analysis for Military Construction Projects and Other
    Applications, is a “must” reference for Projects in the Department of the Army’s Military Construction Program.

  • The PERTAN Group persuaded personnel at the US Army Medical Command to continue funding Reliability-
    Centered Maintenance technologies throughout its facilities.  Our recommendations to continue funding these
    technologies will save the US Army Medical Command $ 20,000,000 over a ten year period.

  • The PERTAN Group helped the EPA assure the integrity of the Energy Star® Label for Commercial Buildings, by
    determining that the buildings that attain the Energy Star® Label do indeed deserve it.

  • The PERTAN Group’s assessment of the role of windows within the context of whole-building energy usage
    helped the EPA decided to redirect their  Energy Star® program for commercial windows.

  • The results from the Economic Analysis of Design and Review Checking (Dr. Checks) System performed by The
    PERTAN Group showed that its implementation will be cost-effective.  These results were instrumental in making
    Dr.Checks the official engineering design review system throughout the Corps of Engineers.
