| Situation | Air Methods, a medical transportation company, wanted to make its locations a competitive advantage as time to get to patients is mission critical. |
| Challenge | Their sites were not fully proximate to their customers and over 60% of their leases were in month-to-month status. This created flexibility, but also risk. |
| Result | Using complex demographics and mapping tools as well as strong negotiating techniques, we were able to create a plan that better secured their locations, saved over $2 million annually and generated new location opportunities better suited for higher revenue opportunities. |
