Jonathan Lee is the director of access control & security systems at Montclair State University. He has been delivering facilities and utility technology solutions for over 20 years. Jonathan gave a workshop presentation at the 2014 BDPA Technology Conference on the topic, 'Facilities Technology - Powering the Future'. As Facilities Technology has grown in concept and practice, traditional organizational models and methods have been reworked, in order to best position companies to compete for the future. The demand for energy, bandwidth and utility services continues to drive facilities and utilities operators to work smarter and more efficiently. Facilities Technology will require an increasingly intelligent workforce in order to meet these demands, and to achieve a more sustainable future.
