I am the Director of Commercial Operations at Leavitt Capital Companies. We contracted with Left Coast Facilities Consulting to conduct preventative maintenance audits for over a dozen properties we manage in South Downtown Seattle. Brent was incredibly easy to work when scheduling tours and he interacted with all our tenants in a professional manner. Each report was thorough with every specification suggested backed by the appropriate authority having jurisdiction requirement. His extensive facilities knowledge provides a comprehensive property evaluation. Choosing Left Coast is a great step toward creating a property management plan that will extend the life of your building and make for happy tenants!

I would like to extend a special thanks to Brent Ward CFM, FMP, SFP, CFT—IFMA Foundation Board Member and Mentor. His insights were among the most valuable contributions I received at this year’s World Workplace Conference in Minneapolis; if I'm saying it, you know it's of true value! Unlocking helpful solutions as well as valued industry insights and somewhat unspoken secrets are priceless; some would say these master keys are often reveled at conferences like IFMA has #WWP by FM industry leaders like FM Brent Ward. Thank you, Sir, it's been a pleasure connecting!!!! Wisdom is learned; leadership requires mentorship. FM's diverse disciplinary skill sets must be fed continuously with knowledge to match and navigate a rapid unprecedented growing time! It’s those we meet along our journeys that assist in strengthened our network and net worthiness!

Brent is professional, collaborative, and pragmatic. He willingly contributes his expertise in ways that help others gain new insights leading to innovative yet practical solutions. He connects ideas so others see the big picture and the hidden implications. Brent's expertise in facility management and assessment helps clients make informed decisions that weigh the risk of financial gain against the feasibility of integration with other systems. Brent would be an asset to any facility team.

Brent boasts an impressive collection of skills and knowledge, allowing him to deliver comprehensive Facility Assessments such as the one conducted for our church in San Diego in need of a thorough assessment to understand its condition and chart course for necessary repairs. Brent spent several days assessing the campus, taking meticulous notes on each roof, HVAC system, structure, parking lot, plumbing, electrical and kitchen equipment. His findings were compiled into a detail sheet, featuring serial numbers, model numbers, manufacture year, and recommended lifespans for each unit, accompanied by photographs. During his presentation, Brent shared innovative repair strategies that optimized quality while minimizing expenses, making him a highly recommended professional.
