The Building People Expands Building Technology Solutions Leadership and Investment

Trevor Morrison named Vice President of Building Technology Solutions to lead the continued expansion of the company’s smart buildings and digital modernization program.

Leesburg, Va. | July 22, 2026 – The Building People has named Trevor Morrison Vice President of Building Technology Solutions, an expanded leadership role that builds upon his previous position as Vice President of Energy, Environment, and Smarter Buildings. Morrison will lead the continued growth of the company’s smart buildings and technology program, helping organizations better connect facilities, systems, data, and operations.

The role reflects The Building People’s continued investment in helping customers modernize complex operational environments, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. As building systems, cybersecurity, energy, and data become more interconnected, organizations need coordinated strategies that look beyond individual technologies and address how their entire environment works together.

Morrison has been with The Building People for nearly 10 years and has played a central role in shaping the company’s energy, smart buildings, and connected infrastructure capabilities. His work has helped customers make better use of operational data, building systems, and energy strategies to improve performance and support broader organizational goals.

“Trevor has been instrumental in strengthening our capabilities and advancing The Building People’s position in the smart buildings and connected infrastructure market,” said Lawrence A. Melton, CEO and President of The Building People. “His new role reflects both the strength of the program he has helped develop and the opportunity ahead of us. He understands how technology, buildings, and people must work together to modernize operations and achieve better outcomes.”

Under Morrison’s leadership, Building Technology Solutions will bring together the expertise needed to help customers move from disparate and disconnected systems toward more coordinated, intelligent environments. The program combines smart buildings, energy, enterprise technology, analytics, and operational technology within a practical approach focused on solving operational challenges.

Rather than starting with a specific product or platform, The Building People evaluates each customer’s existing environment, identifies gaps, and develops a path forward based on business and operational needs. This vendor-agnostic approach helps organizations integrate technologies more effectively, improve visibility, reduce risk, and make better-informed decisions.

The program also expands on The Building People’s experience in technology and building operations while maximizing its focus on artificial intelligence, automation, and the integration of emerging technologies into real-world facility environments.

“This next phase is an opportunity to help our customers think more broadly about what their buildings and technology environments can do for them,” Morrison said. “The future is not about implementing another disconnected system. It is about creating secure, integrated environments that improve facility performance, provide better information, and help people make more informed decisions.”

The Building People’s investment in Building Technology Solutions supports its long-term vision to serve as a strategic partner for organizations navigating increasingly complex operational and technology environments. By connecting technology, buildings, and people, the company helps customers create more intelligent, resilient, and high-performing operations.
