Facilities & Asset Management
We recognizes the critical challenges that face government agencies in effectively managing their facilities and the impact of their policies and economic decisions on achieving sustained business improvements and cost savings. Facility managers are increasingly tasked with doing more with lesser resources-- given responsibility for more square feet with the same or a reduced yearly budget. In addition, skilled personnel are hard to find, train and retain, while customer expectations for support are continually raised. At the same time, facility managers are required to provide more information regarding the condition, cost and compliance of an organization's facilities and associated equipment and materials.
We work closely with each client to establish sound practices, carry out life-cycle cost-effective projects, and enhance efficiency and safety in day-to-day operations. We believe that an effective facilities management program can meet regulatory and policy requirements, while at the same time improving quality of life and productivity. We tailor solutions to actual needs and, thereby, free up dollars for more urgent mission and personnel support requirements.
Facility Assessment & Planning (FAP)
Assessment and a Plan, which takes into consideration the overall space available for their facilities, assesses the existing buildings and structures, and looks at growth projections for square footage, types of usage requirements, and strategic direction of the organization. Once the Plan is understood, organizations then need a maintenance management system that encompasses all their facilities and space management requirements, including associated equipment and materials.
Facilities Utilization Management
(FM) –– Organizations can realize dramatic gains in productivity and service levels by efficiently maintaining the work environment, and related servicing assets. Work performed by space planners, such as maintaining master CAD drawings and updating space and organization data, needs to be available to maintenance personnel to minimize data entry and avoid costly mistakes. Similarly, as maintenance personnel manage serialized assets (equipment and other “tagged” assets) and associated work histories, contracts, materials, and preventative maintenance tasks, the availability of this information to facility and space planners enables both organizations to streamline operations and increase productivity.
