Graced with both good weather and a collaborative Robins Financial Credit Union team, Consultants and Builders, Inc. has completed in less than two days the interior and exterior Athens branch lighting retrofit. The work was completed during as well as outside of normal operation hours to ensure a fully functioning branch remained accessible to members.

Our retrofit services offer energy efficient, innovative lighting solutions. Lighting upgrades provide better quality illumination along with short-term and long-term, savings through rebates, tax incentives, lower energy and maintenance costs.

CBI looks forward to further collaborations with Robins Financial Credit Union, their Team, and great work culture!

Consultants and Builders, Inc.  has recently completed the installation of two NCR Interactive Teller Machines at Associated Credit Union’s Dobbins ARB branch. CBI also installed a monument sign for better brand identification and representation for members. Site lighting was also added for afterhours use since the new ITMs are available for members outside normal business hours.

Echoing the original sentiments when the project idea was generated, Michael Huff, VP of Retail Services at Associated Credit Union noted “We believe that this type of drive thru service will be beneficial to the Dobbins ARB community for a number of reasons: Extended service hours, an additional access point for funds (going from one ATM to two ITMs), additional security – Members would not need to get out of their vehicles to utilize the ITMs, and innovative technology to facilitate timely transactions and offer what today’s Member is looking for; convenience as well as the ability to speak to a live associate to assist with more complex transactions without going into the branch.”

CBI looks forward to our next collaboration with Associated Credit Union in the renovation and reopening of a number of smaller downtown Atlanta microbranches shuttered during Covid.

Following the July 4^th holiday celebration, the CDC Federal Credit Union held a widely anticipated ribbon cutting for their first independent branch prototype. Attended by the City of Tucker Mayor, Council Members and Directors, CDC FCU Executives, Board members, employees, community members, and neighbors, the weather was as stellar as the event itself.

The first speaker was Kimberly Jones, CDC FCU Board of Directors, who noted the credit union’s dedication to the surrounding community and serving members for generations to come. Mayor Auman then spoke, reminiscing the journey of the branch from initial City Council/Community meetings to the ultimate culmination of the ribbon cutting and then grand opening set for the following week. Great excitement surrounds the continued rejuvenation of the Northlake Mall Master Plan of which the CDC FCU branch is a iconic beacon. CDC FCU President and CEO, Australia Hoover, and Tim Gardner, CFO, closed in welcoming all to what was the culmination of many years of work and vision by the credit union community as a whole.

CBI greatly appreciates the partnership with the CDC FCU Executives and employees on this and future projects in collaborative growth.
