Mar 01, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Integrated Electrical Services, Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets: IESRQ) ("IES") today announced that one of its affiliate companies, Newcomb/IES of Roanoke, Virginia, participated in ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. The episode aired on ABC Sunday, February 12, 2006.
Carol Crawford, former ballerina and mother of two sons, was chosen from among thousands of applicants to have her home in Blacksburg, Virginia rebuilt. The team's goal was to build a more handicap accessible home for Ms. Crawford, who has multiple sclerosis. Newcomb/IES donated over $75,000 worth of materials, equipment and labor to the project. Not only did Newcomb/IES perform all of the electrical contracting work for the home, it also completed the plumbing, data communications and HVAC systems. Working 24 hours a day from Tuesday through Saturday (with average outdoor temperatures less than 30 degrees), Newcomb/IES contributed approximately 2,000 man hours to ensure the home was completed on schedule.
IES has developed and implemented two new internal web-based programs to enhance its operational efficiency. The first initiative is an Intranet web- based asset management system -- called IES IBAY -- designed to optimize asset usage among all of the IES affiliate companies. This program enables IES affiliate companies to view and acquire needed equipment, tools or vehicles from an online database which is populated by resources and materials from sister companies. IES has partnered with Fleet Response, a leader in custom- designed fleet management systems, to develop and link the vehicle portion of IBAY, thus maximizing the vehicle and heavy equipment utilization among affiliate companies.
IES' second initiative is IES University which provides timely and user- friendly training to its nationwide workforce through IES' Intranet.
