Gershman, Brickner & Bratton, Inc. (GBB)

In order to maintain a high level of integrity, the department also retained the services of Gershman, Brickner & Bratton, Inc. (GBB) of Fairfax, Virginia to assist the Solid Waste Management Division in preparing its cost proposal.

We were very pleased with the work product provided by GBB through our Solid Waste Export Plan–Third Party Review. I think the King County audience generally felt that the work was thought-provoking and insightful, reflecting a deep understanding of the dynamics of the solid waste management field.

GBB was instrumental in helping us procure a collection contract that has reduced costs by a third.

I know I can speak for the Trustees in saying that GBB has been of enormous assistance to us. The firm has guided us and the two jurisdictions’ solid waste operations through some challenging times. The Trustees have no hesitation in recommending GBB.

We chose FleetRoute’s service bureau to develop our routes using GIS route optimization software because this approach provided a more economic, sophisticated, and faster solution than we could develop in-house. The service bureau gave us valuable access to the FleetRoute team’s extensive experience in waste collection and advanced route design. Using the service bureau allowed us not to worry about the methodology, but rather to focus on the most beneficial routing for the City of Edmond.

GBB was instrumental in helping us procure a collection contract that has reduced costs by a third.

The survey [GBB’s 2006 national studies for the National Demolition Associate of the amount of demolition material generated annually] was incredibly helpful and will be part of the EPA 2006-2011 National Policy. These data influence EPA policy.

GBB was instrumental in helping us procure a collection contract that has reduced costs by a third.

The combination of GBB’s procurement experience and C&D knowledge gave the County assurance that we were headed in the right direction at a crucial time.
