New Rules to Understand
We like acronyms. After BAA, we now have BABA (Build America Buy America) and the industry is still trying to understand the new product requirements for complying with BABA. For the past year, the question was asked: “Have you heard of BABA?” You may be used to respond affirmatively to that question, I know what it is after reading an article about it in this issue. Another very popular acronym in our industry is LED. Remember what it stands for? Robert Lanteigne talks about the transition to LED in the lighting design side of the industry. Good reading!
