Public Private Partnerships (PPPs)

How Do You Benefit?

running your facilities

Environmental Compliance: The federal government has implemented tighter regulations on the quality of drinking water and wastewater treatment plants. We can draw on our experience operating other facilities to recommend improvements or operating changes to stay in compliance.

Efficiency: The experience of operating other plants can help us reduce costs through bulk purchasing, more efficient plant operations, and the use of a computerized maintenance program.

Planning: Evaluate your current infrastructure and facilities and establish a capital assessment plan that will help prepare you for the future.

Staffing: We first look at the current staff since they have the knowledge of the facilities and provide them with educational and safety training opportunities along with the ability for advancement within the company. Plus, PeopleService is employee-owned so they become and are the backbone of the company and the reason for our success.

With PeopleService operating your facilities, not only do we help take the headaches away of managing them, it allows you to focus on other business, "your community."

Reasons why partnerships are in place:

  • Is your facilities running at maximum efficiency?
  • No one in place to keep up with regulations?
  • Costs are unpredictable?
  • How much is being spent on water and wastewater?
