Repair or Replace: Evolving Technology

Originally streamed October 27, 2022

Sometimes the answers are surprising!  Join Magnum Media’s Group Director of Engineering Chris Tarr, CPBE, AMD, DRB, CBNE, for a discussion about the low- and high-level discussions and decisions that factor in to the final answer.
