Upon further and final <br />analysis, I believe you will find us as the best overall fit to meet your needs. <br />Keith & Keith Corrections (KKC) was founded in 1996 with a singular focus on <br />providing detention and corrections facility management. Headquartered in nearby <br />Charlotte, the parent company, The Keith Corporation, consistently ranks at the top in <br />development and property/facility management. From the combination of experiences <br />with state correctional and county detention facilities, KKC has developed an extensive <br />knowledge of how these facilities operate and the methodologies which are the most <br />efficient and effective. <br />Currently, KKC manages over 2.5 million square feet of detention and <br />correctional facilities in North Carolina wi#h a housing capacity of over 7,000 beds. KKC <br />operates these facilities with over 85+ employees ranging in skill sets from housekeeping <br />to electronics technicians to plumbers to facility managers.

After an <br />extensive review process, these Partners were selected for each category or discipline <br />which was required in the scope of facility or property management. (e.g. 3anitorial, <br />HVAC Maintenance, Electrical and Plumbing Supplies, Water Treatment, etc.). Our goal <br />was to leverage our total square footage in our portfolio to gain quality and price.
