The ILI team would like to thank RIFE International for their support in making the City of Baltimore’s, “B’More Bright” project a huge success. Together, we managed the installation of 3,454 streetlight installations in a very challenging environment (in the city’s Violence Reduction Initiative zones). RIFE team served an essential role in completing this project providing us with first class field supervisors and enabling us to stay on schedule and on budget. RIFE’s unwavering support was key also to getting us back on track after the city’s accounting systems were infected with a ransomware virus. We greatly appreciate RIFE’s support in ensuring an on-time completion date and with a satisfied customer. Looking forward to working with RIFE again in the near future.

RIFE International was very professional in all aspects of the job. From the audit/consultation, to the explanation of rebates from PEPCO and other financing options, to the completion of the work. Thanks to the lighting upgrade project that RIFE International implemented we reduced our electric consumption by about 171,000kw annually. This amounts to about $25000 annually when you include labor saved. Communication was excellent throughout the project. We were pleased with the work and highly recommend RIFE International.
