Service Provider Benefits
In addition to this work helping to improve the ‘aina, becoming a qualified service provider may help your business.
From our work with the community over the years, we know that there is an interest for the installation of rainwater capture systems by residents. We have also learned that one hindrance to the installation of rainwater capture systems is the lack of knowledge on how to do it.
With this project, we anticipate the need to install a few hundred solutions (mainly rain barrels), and this only will reach a percentage of the number of applications received.
After this project, we list qualified service providers on our website to support inquiries from our community members. In addition to this project, there are other entities following suit. As such, we can only imagine that the demand for skilled service providers will increase to meet the growing demand.
