"We looked at the square footage we have under contract and it's substantial," said Bryan Zaplitny, President of CGE Energy. "That represents hundreds of thousands of lights that we ensure always remain lit and shining bright as well as helping our customers' facilities stay safe and secure year-round."
Zaplitny believes that by building ongoing maintenance relationships, it provides long-term sustainability to the Michigan-based energy service company. With CGE Energy going public at the end of the month, he says R.A.M.P. has become a long-term revenue source that plays an important role on the company's yearly financials.
"It makes great business sense to both us and our customers. We have proved the R.A.M.P. model and are working with our strategic partners to expand this program into city-wide contracts to support municipal streetlights."
Zaplitny touts CGE Energy's R.A.M.P. service as "worry-free" with service crews being able to make a repair within 24-36 hours following a reported outage. He compares it to other services a business outsources, like lawn care or window washing.
"RAMP has helped us simplify our lighting repairs so that we can spend more time focusing on our business," said Steve Whitener, owner of Briarwood Ford and long-time RAMP customer.
