TROY, Mich. - A microsite called Moving On - Thriving in Tough Times provides different strategies that contractors in various industries have put into practice to not only get through, but succeed, in the current economic crisis and the resulting construction downturn.

The site, www.bnpmedia.com/movingon, contains a slide show highlighting ideas that actual design, construction, mechanical, service and maintenance, engineering, and architectural companies are doing to succeed in this business climate.
