Book excerpt: Deferred maintenance is a major contributor to the huge infrastructure problems plaguing the nation (ASCE, 2017). The bill for deferred maintenance at Massachusetts public higher education institutions is estimated at $5.5 billion (Krantz, 2017). Deferred maintenance causes premature equipment failure, health and safety issues, increased energy costs, interruptions in student learning, and reduced student recruitment and retention (Smith, 2017). To understand problems associated with deferred maintenance at state universities, knowing the views of those responsible for maintenance programs is essential. This study explored how facilities leaders at state universities perceived deferred maintenance issues by addressing five research questions. 1. To what degree are the magnitude and consequences of deferred maintenance realized? 2. What factors contribute to deferred maintenance? 3. What factors hinder implementation of reduction efforts? 4. What are successful strategies for reducing deferred maintenance? 5. How can facilities leaders affect institutional change to reduce deferred maintenance? The study used Q methodology, which combines both quantitative and qualitative techniques (Ellingsen, Størksen, & Stephens, 2010), to analyze relative viewpoints on deferred maintenance of purposefully selected state university facilities leaders (N = 19). Data collection was accomplished through participants ranking 49 statements from agree with to disagree with by sorting and positioning the statements into a normal curve distribution grid (Brown, 1993). PQMethod Release 2.35 freeware (Schmolck & Atkinson, 2014) was employed for calculating correlations, factoring, needed rotations, and final analysis. Data analysis revealed three factor groups: Realist Leaders, Optimistic Leaders, and Front Line Leaders. Each group had some unique viewpoints while sharing consensus on several viewpoints. Overall, the results showed little realization of the magnitude and the consequences of deferred maintenance issues; sometimes this was by design. Building age, construction quality, usage, and building acquisitions were major factors contributing to deferred maintenance. Lack of funds, unexpected projects, and procurement procedures were viewed as hindrances. Identified successful strategies included preventive maintenance, shared use of standardized and non-proprietary equipment, and reliance on study results. Participation of facilities leaders at senior level meetings was viewed as key to affecting change. Results of the study should assist educational leaders in understanding and reducing deferred maintenance.
Download or read book Deferred Maintenance Reporting for Federal Facilities written by Federal Facilities Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-04-05 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996 the Federal Accounting Standards Advisory Board (FASAB) 1 enacted Standard Number 6, Accounting for Property, Plant, and Equipment (PP&E), the first government-wide initiative requiring federal agencies to report dollar amounts of deferred maintenance annually. The FASAB has identified four overall objectives in federal financial reporting: budgetary integrity, operating performance, stewardship, and systems and control. FASAB Standard Number 6, as amended, focuses on operating performance and stewardship. The FFC Standing Committee on Operations and Maintenance has prepared this report to identify potential issues that should be considered in any future amendments to the standard and to suggest approaches for resolving them. The committee's intent is to assist the CFO Council, federal agencies, the FASAB, and others as they consider how best to meet the objectives of federal financial reporting for facilities.

This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The deteriorating condition of federal facilities poses economic, safety, operational, and environmental risks to the federal government, to the achievement of the missions of federal agencies, and to the achievement of public policy goals. Primary factors underlying this deterioration are the age of federal facilities-about half are at least 50 years old-and decades of inadequate investment for their maintenance and repair. These issues are not new and there are no quick fixes. However, the current operating environment provides both the impetus and the opportunity to place investments in federal facilities' maintenance and repair on a new, more sustainable course for the 21st Century. Despite the magnitude of investments, funding for the maintenance and repair of federal facilities has been inadequate for many years, and myriad projects have been deferred. Predicting Outcomes of Investments in Maintenance and Repair of Federal Facilities identifies processes and practices for transforming the current portfolio of federal facilities into one that is more economically, physically, and environmentally sustainable. This report addresses ways to predict or quantify the outcomes that can be expected from a given level of maintenance and repair investments in federal facilities or facilities' systems, and what strategies, measures, and data should be in place to determine the actual outcomes of facilities maintenance and repair investments.
