Buckaplan.com offering blueprint copies for $1/page

"Buckaplan is like using Amazon.com or 1-800-Flowers. Just log on to one website, upload files and amazingly plans are in our office the very next day!" That is just one of the positive comments being heard by the creator of Buckaplan.com, the only known service in the entire United States that offers copying blueprint plans for just $1/page/plan. "Buckaplan is radically innovating how our printing services are meeting the high-pressure time and budgetary demands of the AEC marketplace- architects, engineers and contractors. Not only are we printing blueprints for just $1/page, we offer 24-hour turnaround delivery of copied plans that we receive by 5 p.m. EST. It's a revolutionary business model that is preempting the competition," stated Buckaplan.com creator, Brian Burke. Buckaplan's copying charge of $1/page/plan completely eliminates the printing industry's traditional tiered pricing structure and processing fees. Burke said, "We charge $1 for each page of any plan regardless of the plan size, quantity needed, or type of project. Using high-quality reprographic equipment, we duplicate plan sizes of 24"x 36", 30"x 42", and even oversized 36" x 48". Burke explains, "Before Buckaplan, most building-related professionals depended on their local print shops to duplicate plans at costs of $3 to $4/page/plan. With Buckaplan, all of that has changes. Plus: there are no hidden charges, no sign-up fees, no monthly charges, and no file processing fees. The cost is always just $1 per page per plan plus ground delivery fees to anywhere in the U.S." "Working with Buckaplan is very simple," said architect Eric Army, principal of StudioMEJA in Edgewood, Rhode Island. "We upload blueprints to the Buckaplan.com website and Burke's team prints and delivers the requested copies the next day. The service has been 100% reliable and dependable for the two years we have worked with the Buckaplan team. We receive the copied plans the next day and we know exactly the cost, $1/page/plan plus delivery charge, and we have done nothing more than upload a file to the Buckaplan team. This expeditious and highly-dependable process allows our boutique architectural firm to focus on our specialty design." To learn more, visit www.Buckaplan.com.

Ask the Electrician: How do I prepare my commercial building for a disaster?

New England’s notorious weather – from fierce winter storms to summer squalls and fall hurricanes – can leave businesses in the dark. While power outages are often blamed on storms, they can also be caused by unforeseen events like accidents or construction mishaps. While it’s impossible to prevent disasters and power outages entirely, proactive preparation can significantly minimize their impact on your commercial building.

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.

The industrial markets have never been stronger. What has happened is that the build out of Devens with new high-tech biotech manufacturing with housing to service these buildings serves as the connector required to really make the I-495 West market sizzle. Worcester has been the beneficiary
