First Maintenance Company was started in
Oklahoma City in 1982.
A family originated the business with more than 20 years'
experience in building services in Texas and Oklahoma.
In March 1984, Robert T. Lewis, II and
Jay V. Wells purchased the company. The company was incorporated as an S-Corp
in the State of Oklahoma. Robert T. Lewis, II acquired 100 % ownership
in September 1993 and from 1984 through 2006, personally operated the
company.
In 2007, Christopher Lewis was promoted to
President of First Maintenance Company and currently oversees operations.
In March 1989, Robert T. Lewis, II, Jay V. Wells and Phillip W. Ashley acquired First Maintenance Company of Tulsa. First Maintenance of Tulsa was subsequent sold in 2005.
Since its inception, the business has grown into one of the largest janitorial contractors in Oklahoma. The company cleans in excess of 10 million square feet of office, training, research, medical, school and government facilities in the State of Oklahoma. Project sizes range from a few thousand square feet to several hundred thousand square feet and are under the management of most of the major property management companies in the State.
One of the key differences between First
Maintenance Company and its competition is the involvement of upper and
middle management.
An Account Executive is assigned to each building and coordinates
efforts between tenants, building managers and cleaning personnel to
promptly address problems and special requests. In addition, personnel
at the supervisor level or above are equipped with mobile phones, pagers
and are on 24-hour answering service to provide responsive service to
customers.
First Maintenance has been fortunate to provide
services on a
diverse range of projects. These include a past 5 year contract with
the Federal Department of Transportation at their FAA Mike Monroney
Aeronautical Center which encompassed in excess of 2 million square feet. Currently
our reference sheet shows such clients as Integris Medical Center, Sandridge,
Cotter Tower, OG&E, ONG and many of the most prestigious properties
in Oklahoma.
Currently, First Maintenance cleans 6+
million square feet in the Oklahoma City area and employees 330 people
at its 50+ various
job sites. In 2009, First Maintenance in Oklahoma City had revenues in excess
of 9 million dollars.
