Common Areas-YellowBird Alliance Provides CRE Industry an End-to-End Resource for COVID-19 PreventionTUSTIN, Calif., May 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Common Areas and YellowBird, two online, cloud-based platforms serving the commercial real estate and related industries, have formed an alliance that makes it easier for businesses to effectively manage COVID-19 prevention in their operations as well as connect with and engage environmental, health and safety (EHS) experts across the country when situations arise.
The alliance brings together the team connectivity, day-to-day operational solution and reporting capabilities of Common Areas' platform with YellowBird's access to more than 300 independent, trained and certified EHS experts across the country. Ultimately, the alliance will allow businesses to effectively address issues while providing peace of mind to employees, clients and customers with tangible evidence that their health and safety are a top priority. "Providing solutions and improving productivity for businesses, and their teams, is at the heart of Common Areas' operating philosophy," says Casey Rue, CEO and Founder of Common Areas. "Aligning with YellowBird, a company that provides access to expertise that might otherwise be hard to identify, advances that philosophy and allows us to better serve our clients." Addressing COVID-19 related issues and concerns through the engagement of an EHS specialist is one of the most immediate challenges for businesses, government entities as well as property owners and managers. Through its platform, YellowBird offers programs where companies can engage the services of certified, highly trained professionals to diagnose the situation and establish a plan for a company to reopen to its employees, customers and clients.

Among some of the more typical reasons why business and property owners and managers may require the services of an EHS consultant include:
"Common Areas clients, regardless the type of properties they own, manage or occupy space in, want expertise immediately, to solve the issues that are impacting their business and properties," says Michael Zalle, CEO and Founder of YellowBird. "In the highly specialized and technical EHS world, YellowBird provides immediate access to the problem solvers. This is the basis for a great alliance. Our goal is to provide trained and ready professionals at a rate that virtually any business can afford. We will help get America working again." Common Areas is also providing preconfigured, industry specific, COVID-19 prevention operation solutions, based on the latest CDC and OSHA guidelines, at no charge (for a limited time) to help commercial real estate and multifamily property owners, operators, property and facility managers execute their response to the pandemic and document portfolio-wide progress in those efforts.
