Who is Stage 2 Facility Management?
Stage 2 Facility Management is founded on three core ideas : the quality of the spaces we enter shape the way we feel, the people that we share these spaces with shape the way we live, and we can do something to help bring these spaces alive and keep them thriving. We serve single to multi location operations; in other words, we help the surgery center director, the veterinary hospital surgeon, the dentist, and the biotech facility operator focus on what matters to them : growing their business, taking care of their people first, and excelling at what they do.
We make sure our clients have a beautiful, functional, and above all a safe and compliant space to do what they do best. We don’t take ourselves too seriously, we deliver above and beyond, and we focus on what’s important : helping the dynamic spaces that help make our world better.
