While major hurricanes are on the news, even a small tropical storm can significantly impact your commercial and investment properties. Managing and maintaining your commercial property before, during, and after a tropical weather event can be complex and require your full attention. Now is the time to prepare a plan for what needs to happen before and after a storm impacts your area. Being prepared with your commercial property before the storm will help your business rebound quicker and have less damage. Think about it, the longer it takes for your business to recover structurally and aesthetically from such storms, the more money you miss out on due to lost business.  Of course, one of the best parts of your plan is to have your team in place and ready to act as soon as it's safe to clean up and repair your commercial property right after the storm; you won’t have to worry about losing time trying to find someone available to help. The team at Berman has significant experience with hurricane preparation and recovery. As a Florida-based business with a strong presence in the Caribbean, we are the experts in bringing commercial properties back online quickly.

The event came to us on the heels of a relationship built up for many years between Hilton, Lake Nona, and Berman.    The concert series occurred over the course of three nights and had headliners such as En Vogue, Ellie Goulding, Maren Morris, and Celebrity DJ Paris Hilton. Meanwhile, the Tournament of Champions Golf Tournament was a 4-day event with a mixture of sponsors, celebrities, and professional female golfers.   The Tournament of Champions event pairs golfing pros and celebrities to play together on a team for a golf tournament at the Lake Nona Golf and Country Club. This is where Berman comes in – Berman acts as an owner’s representative for all of Lake Nona’s property management and operations.    We handle all their janitorial, on-demand repair/setup, and security needs. They love the work we do for them year-round. Berman also provides Hilton with various support, security, and cleaning services. Therefore, Berman was their first thought when looking for someone to manage all these aspects of the big event.   [Read More](https://blog.bermancorp.com/lpga-tournament-of-champions-berman) ## [Combining Technology and the Human Element for Security](https://blog.bermancorp.com/technology-and-human-security) [![](https://blog.bermancorp.com/hubfs/berman-blog-img-12-22.jpg)](https://blog.bermancorp.com/technology-and-human-security) Posted by [Berman](https://blog.bermancorp.com/author/berman) on Dec 21, 2022 4:43:20 PM Security is always a top priority.

We know from previous times of economic uncertainty that the facilities budget is often one of the first on the chopping block. While it might be tempting to cut the facilities budget over other initiatives, we also know that cuts to facility management lead to costly breakdowns down the road as less money is spent on preventative maintenance and repairs. Bundled facility services may offer CFOs and regional facility managers a softer path where companies can often save on facility costs without interrupting preventative maintenance initiatives or hindering the quality of work.
