Facility Management Minutes Episode 6: Wanda Lenkewich

This is the sixth episode of our Facility Management Minutes series on YouTube. In these videos, we discuss facility management career paths, the development of CAD and BIM standards, facility lifecycles, facilities management software, GIS, total cost of ownership (TCO), the future of the facility management industry, and more.

Our sixth guest of this series is Wanda Lenkewich, President of Chinook Systems. Wanda has built her business around the very challenging problems of building commissioning. Essentially, she helps new building owners build the information systems necessary to maintain and operate facilities from the information delivered from design and construction. Wanda is one of those people whose life speaks volumes about the value of persistence.
