This thesis examines the role of the comptroller in the area of Facilities Management. Though facilities management is often the largest consumer of operational resources handled by the comptroller, this field has historically been left strictly to the control of staff officers of the Civil Engineer Corp. The fiscal climate of the 1990s will reward line managers who are able to work in partnership with their facilities managers. This thesis provides a framework of understanding on which such a...

In most cases the facilities inventory of an educational institution is its largest fiscal asset. The physical plant or facilities management department is the steward for keeping that asset from becoming a liability. Its principal charge is to make sure that the building inventory maintains its ability to function as intended, that it is safe and legal, and that its life is perpetuated to the greatest extent possible. In most cases, facilities management departments have evolved uniquely...

Universities want a lot of things such as high quality students, excellent faculty, supportive alumni, high quality academic programs, a great football team, a beautiful campus, and a good reputation. They also want students to learn. One typically thinks of learning as taking place only in classrooms but research has confirmed that students establish relationships and learn from each other on campus in environments outside the classroom. Settings such as courtyards, patios, or a grassy knoll...

This article will assume that one has heard of Building Information Modeling or BIM but has not developed a strategy as to how to get the most out of it. The National BIM Standard (NBIMS) has defined BIM as a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. As such, it serves as a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility, forming a reliable basis for decisions during its life cycle from inception onward. A basic premise of BIM is collaboration...

It's official--the Web is now social. Actually, it has always been social to a degree, but now it's "mostly" social. A lot of terms have been coined or adopted to describe various aspects of this phenomenon--social media, social networking, consumer-generated media (CGM) and Web 2.0. While it is hard to define "exactly" what Web 2.0 is, or when Web 1.0 ended, it is clear that the Web today feels very different than it did five years ago. This article looks at some of the...

When Bill Elvey became APPA's new President at the association's conference in San Antonio in July, he was at home in more ways than one. A native Texan, he grew up in San Antonio and met his wife-to-be there--in the seventh grade. Last fall, after an absence of 31 years, he came back to Texas as director of facilities management at the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD), a young, dynamic research institution on the cutting edge of science, technology, medicine, business, and the arts. As he...

Nearly 25 years ago a group of APPA members and facilities managers started to discuss an idea and to plant a seed about the need for a document, or series of documents, that would explain the need for staffing facilities operations and the implication of such staffing on levels of service. As the demand for increased budget cuts reached seismic proportions, facilities managers scrambled for assistance to validate their staffing requirements and the impact of budget cuts on levels of service....

The central problem for the facility manager of large portfolios is not the accuracy of data, but rather data integrity. Data integrity means that it's (1) acceptable to the users; (2) based upon an objective source; (3) reproducible; and (4) internally consistent. Manns and Katsinas, in their January/February 2006 Facilities Manager article "Capital Budgeting Practices in Higher Education," pointed out two major failings in capital budgeting practices for higher education: states...

Educational facilities professionals are entrusted with the stewardship function of the largest capital asset on their campus, buildings and infrastructure. However, that stewardship role is only as effective as the institution's strategy of investment that supports it. To be an effective steward one must also be an effective educator and facilitator. To perform the functions of an educational facilities professional, the first step is to understand the facts about buildings and infrastructure...

In music, transition can be "a progression from one key to another in a piece of music." Michael Watkins, author of "The First 90 Days" states, "Transitions are periods of opportunity, a chance to start afresh and to make needed changes in an organization." For those who are in the facilities world, transition can often refer to a change of leadership; which more often than not results in a change in vision, perspective, leadership styles, and practices. Not all...

Being environmentally responsible is a hot topic and critical issue. Many in the scientific community estimate we are slowly destroying the Earth's climate and landscape as we know it today. However, not all scientists agree with this theory, as a significant number of people have been environmentally responsible for a long time, recognizing early that it is simply the right thing to do. As a result, there are a growing number of sustainable solutions--products, techniques, and services--and...

Thermal imaging was used 60+ years ago to enable the targeting of heat-seeking missiles and seeing opposing forces at night. Today thermograpy is employed for myriad uses, from turning on faucets, to tracking and attacking enemies from aerial spy drones, to identifying the scope of moisture infiltration in building envelopes. Thermography for facilities management has gone through an evolution of camera technology and procedures starting six decades ago with hand-held cameras and men walking on...

The United States and Canada have a long tradition in recognizing that there are considerable social and economic benefits of providing high quality education to as many people as possible. Community colleges made a significant contribution in expanding educational opportunities for the masses. Attendance at one of these institutions is associated with higher wages, even if a degree is not completed. As the United States and Canada recover from the global economic crisis that began in 2008, it...

This report examines the underutilization of K-12 school facilities and the hidden advantages and disadvantages in expanding K-12 school facilities beyond a 7-hour weekday. It concludes that the benefits from extending facility hours for more teaching, increased extracurricular activities, and community use appear to far outweigh the more traditional limitations on the use of school facilities. A list of ways school facilities can be used by the surrounding community is provided, followed by...

With economic pressures restricting campus budgets and healthcare policy issues capturing national attention, facilities managers at university-affiliated hospitals and other healthcare entities say they feel more urgency than ever to provide cost-effective services to patients, providers, medical researchers, and students. Managing facilities at a university-related medical center is, in many ways, much like doing it on an academic campus--except in the many ways it isn't, and that's what...

First, a brief review of the state of knowledge concerning the impact of environmental quality on the educational process is presented. Second, the trend toward site-based management (SBM) in schools is discussed in light of the potential opportunities for developing...
