RETAIL FACILITIES MAINTENANCE INDUSTRY BEST PRACTICES


A key component of PRSM's Best Practices Program is the industry white papers, which answer a current need of the Association's membership to acquire and share information about industry best business practices being utilized by retailers and vendors concerning retail facilities maintenance and management. Driven by PRSM's Best Practices Committee, and written by individuals who are at the top of their careers, these papers are designed to share what other industry professionals are doing along with their successes and failures.
