Welcome to the December issue of LM&M, where we close out 2025 with stories of resilience, innovation, and what’s next for lighting maintenance professionals. On the cover is Mt. Hood Meadows, where Pacific Energy Concepts proves EV charging can thrive at 6,000 feet.
Also in this issue: Our 2025 Annual Convention & Trade Show Wrap Up brings you highlights from general sessions, the show floor, and the conversations that carried on long after the lights dimmed.
Randy Reid unpacks Taresh Grover’s challenge to rethink how contractors use data and automation. We make the case for luminaire level lighting controls with practical insights from real-world deployments. Plus, we go Up Close with Kyle Landig to trace one contractor’s path through recessions, rapid growth, and changing customer demands, and we map out the latest supply chain pressure points that could shape your 2026 planning.
All that and more. Enjoy this issue!
