Boston, MA J.M. Electrical Company, Inc. are celebrating their 30th anniversary of successful operations in the Greater Boston area. Starting as a two person outfit in 1985 and growing to a staff with more than 140 full-time employees, J.M. Electrical’s employees have worked more than three million man hours to complete nearly 13,000 construction and electrical projects for the Greater Boston area. The success of the company is due in large part to the dedicated staff and trusted partnerships with vendors and suppliers over the past three decades.

“This is an exciting milestone for J.M. Electrical which has grown by successfully working with commercial businesses, institutions and organizations to provide more reliable and energy efficient building automation systems to support their needs,” said Paul Guarracino, president of J.M. Electrical. “We’ve been fortunate to employ some of the best professionals and electricians in the industry while receiving tremendous support from our customers, vendors and suppliers over the past 30 years with most of our success coming from these important relationships. We are very proud to celebrate this milestone and hope to continue our legacy as the premier professionals in building automation systems for many years to come.”

Among the 13,000 projects that J.M. Electrical has completed are some of the most high-profile buildings shaping the Boston-Cambridge skyline including Merck Pharmaceuticals, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Boston Convention Center, Logan International Airport, Harvard University, The Liberty Hotel, and most recently the Pricewaterhouse Coopers headquarters in the Seaport District. For these projects, J.M. Electrical has done everything from provide advanced energy management and security systems, install instrumentation systems to monitor and control sensitive laboratory environments, and retrofit facilities to improve energy performance and efficiency. These systems have helped building owners and operators control costs, meet rising energy demands, and increase the efficiency of energy consumption allowing them to save money in more ways than one.

 “Today’s advanced building systems are amazingly sophisticated, and it takes a wide range of skills and knowledge to ensure that all the systems work seamlessly and reliably, so our partners look for a contractor that they can trust to complete their complicated projects,” said Matthew Guarracino, business development manager at J.M. Electrical.  “This level of expertise is important for commercial enterprises and institutions that operate with tight budgets and require customized solutions in order to gain returns on their capital investments. We are proud to provide a high level of quality that our customers have grown to expect and value – with many of these customers returning for new projects or referring us to their professional network.”  J.M. Electrical tracks their customer satisfaction rate through various surveys as part of their ISO Certification and the company has achieved an average customer approval rating of over 97%.

At the individual business level, energy management is one of the biggest budgeting challenges faced by a company or institution. J.M. Electrical installs building automation and energy management systems that not only reduce the overall energy costs for customers, but also provide long-term budget stability and system reliability. J.M. Electrical has a successful track record of working with private and public organizations to increase their energy efficiency throughout the Greater Boston region.  While advanced building systems have been the cornerstone of J.M. Electrical’s business, renewable energy is starting to take a leading role in addition to instrumentation and retrofit/performance contracting and the company plans to develop those areas of business in the years to come.
