Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Capitol Power Plant (CPP), managed by the Architect of the Capitol (AOC), provides heating and cooling for the U.S. Capitol and surrounding facilities. This plant, which provides steam and chilled water year-round for about 16 million square feet of space in 24 facilities, consists of 4 main components--the steam plant, the East Refrigeration Plant, the West Refrigeration Plant, and the administration building. In 2003, CPP awarded a construction contract that involved a major effort both to expand the capacity of the plant to meet the growing heating and cooling needs of the U.S. Capitol and to update plant equipment. The centerpiece of this expansion effort is the West Refrigeration Plant Expansion project, a $100.9 million project scheduled for completion in March 2008. For more than a decade, potential overstaffing at CPP has been a principal concern. In 1996, an AOC engineering consultant for CPP asserted that CPP was overstaffed and recommended reducing staff as a way to deliver CPP services more costeffectively. In 2004, in response to a congressional mandate to assess CPP operations and infrastructure, we recommended that AOC update the consultant's 1996 study and examine the advantages and disadvantages of outsourcing CPP operations. More recently, in response to congressional concerns about CPP staffing levels, we reported on AOC's management of CPP and made recommendations on CPP's staffing levels. In 2005, we recommended that AOC develop an implementation plan for adjusting staff levels based on a 2004 study conducted by another AOC engineering consultant that found staffing levels higher at CPP than at comparable plants. Because AOC has made little progress in reducing CPP staffing levels and examining sourcing options, congressional concerns about the overall management of CPP persist. Accordingly, we were directed to examine the feasibility of AOC's entering into a contract with a private entity for the management and operation of the CPP. In response, this report discusses (1) the actions that CPP has taken since 2004 to reduce operating costs and increase efficiencies and (2) the challenges that AOC will need to address before it can make future sourcing decisions about CPP operations.

Download or read book Outsourcing Energy Management written by Steven Fawkes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes energy management outsourcing as a way of addressing the current energy challenges facing all organizations, namely high and volatile energy prices, the need to mitigate climate change and potential supply constraints as oil production peaks. These problems are likely to intensify in the coming years, yet most organizations have reduced in-house capability to address them, thus outsourcing is increasingly seen as an essential part of any strategy to reduce energy use and carbon emissions. The author describes the basic processes of energy management and how to outsource them in a strategic way to achieve maximum results. The process is based on a new model of energy management looking at total costs, which is presented in the book. The book offers a comprehensive guide to outsourcing energy management, discussing the risks and benefits and taking managers through the process of deciding whether to outsource or not, and finding and assessing an outsourcing partner. Managers looking to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions through the use of external service providers will find Outsourcing Energy Management an ideal 'how to do it' guide.
