Lunds & Byerlys Streamlines Refrigeration Compliance Management Through Digital Solutions

Lunds & Byerlys, located in Edina, Minnesota, is teaming up with facility management solutions provider Facilio to enhance its refrigeration compliance management and optimize store operations through digital solutions. This collaboration involves implementing Facilio’s integrated refrigeration compliance management system, which is designed to meet the EPA’s Proposed AIM Act. This act expands Section 608 requirements to encompass refrigeration appliances that contain 15 pounds or more of hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants.

In accordance with the Clean Air Act, supermarkets are mandated to monitor, repair, and document any leaks in commercial refrigeration systems, with fines potentially reaching up to $57,617 for each violation per day. To mitigate these risks, https://www.lundsandbyerlys.com/ will adopt a refrigeration management platform that automates leak detection and compliance oversight. The system conducts leak inspections every 45 days, and if a leak is detected, it triggers a leak event to ensure prompt corrective action is taken.

Beyond tracking refrigeration compliance, the platform integrates seamlessly with its work order management system, existing accounting software, and third-party IT tools. This integration enables Lunds & Byerlys to monitor asset performance and compliance data effectively, leading to actionable insights and improved decision-making across various teams, including contractors, finance, store staff, and field technicians.

Currently, Lunds & Byerlys operates 28 upscale grocery stores throughout the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, positioning itself as a leader in grocery retail while enhancing its operational efficiencies through digital innovation.
