Project Overview
PSG Energy Services completed a nationwide LED conversion for UPS across 370 operating facilities and approximately 45 million square feet. The project supported UPS’s facility improvement efforts by raising lighting performance, improving energy efficiency, and minimizing maintenance needs.
The Challenge
UPS needed consistent lighting upgrades across a large network of active shipping and distribution facilities. Installations had to meet internal standards without slowing daily throughput, disrupting workers, or interrupting shipping schedules. The entire 370-site program also needed to be completed within 12 months.
The Solution
PSG coordinated procurement, logistics, and installation through a centralized national program. Flexible sourcing met UPS specifications, while site-by-site scheduling and rapid regional mobilization allowed crews to work around active operations, including at union facilities.
Client Objectives
1
Improve lighting levels to support safety and productivity.
2
Cut energy consumption and future lighting maintenance needs.
3
Complete a 370-facility program without disrupting operations.
Highlights
Nationwide Execution
PSG coordinated LED replacements across 370 facilities covering approximately 45 million square feet.
Operational Continuity
Installations were sequenced around active shipping and distribution work so facilities could remain operational.
Procurement & Logistics
Centralized sourcing and regional mobilization supported a 12-month rollout across diverse sites.
The Results + Impact
The program replaced approximately 130,000 fixtures and generated $8 million in annual energy savings, alongside $750,000 in secured rebates. UPS also benefited from improved facility lighting and reduced maintenance requirements, with deployment completed during a 12-month window.
