Some Current Physical Plant Issues And Challenges.
• Deferred Maintenance
• Longer hours of operation 24/7
• More events/set ups
• Research requires less tolerance for down time
• Energy efficiency/Global Warming
• Higher than average turnover
• Limited maintenance space
• New codes/regulatory requirements
• Operating dollar increase not keeping pace with market
• Significantly less management of the Physical Plant as a
result of cuts
• Greater liability for not getting it done
• Facilities more technically complex
• Tight labor pool in Burlington Vermont Area
6
What Else Is Makes our Job Challenging
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
More Research facilities
All spaces open to all people
Eating/drinking in all spaces appear to be a status quo
More access to food and drink all over campus
More utilization of space
Everyone wants Air Conditioning
There is a general feeling that all services should be free
Buildings are getting older/
Competing for one pot of dollars against other important projects
Limited IT resources in AFS
What’s chargeable and what is not
7
Why Do We Need To Adjust Our Staffing
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Provide Excellent Service
Service Level Expectation (see chart)
No identified internal engineering resource
Utility system becoming more complex and critical
Keep newer buildings operating efficiently
Keep research activities running
Provide a safe environment
Do More preventive maintenance
Do More predictive maintenance
Utilize systems that we have invested in
Keep up with work requests
Studies indicate that we are under resourced
Desire to move into more zone maintenance

Some Maintenance Definitions
• PM- I like to call it Preventive Measures which include:
–
–
–
–
–
Inspections –Roof inspection
Predictive maintenance- Bearing signature analysis
Preventive maintenance-Change the belts
Testing- Strap on flow meter
Analysis -Trending
• Corrective maintenance
– Work performed without a customer request
– Work performed as a result of issues reported from PM findings
– Initiated by maintenance organization
• Reactive maintenance- unplanned and are a response to campus needs
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Minor problems
Hot/cold calls
Service calls
Favors
Everyone’s lack of planning
Vandalism repairs..
Support of contractor/project needs (mostly unplanned)
• Emergency maintenance
–
–
–
–
Immediate action
Failures
Caused by a variety of reasons
Could range from a flood or vial graffiti
• Non-maintenance
–
–
–
–
–
Graduation, events
Valet maintenance, light painting, and carpentry items done by request.
Special functions/requests
Maintenance of research equipment
Do not extend the facility life
• Capital maintenance
– Typically done as a separate effort outside of the maintenance trades
– Deferred maintenance projects
– Major equipment upgrades

Where Are We In This Picture
• We believe we are in the managed care catagort in many facilities.
• Some buildings a re higher and some lower
• We would like to be in the comprehensive stewardship range as a
stretch goal

Spending Less but Getting More
Solid PM Spending Given the Below Average Facilities Budget
Sightlines Database Average: $6.70 /GSF
Sightlines Database Average $6.70/GSF
University Of Vermont Approximately 5 Million Gross Square Feet

Sightlines

strategically populate organizational structure. This includes
additional resources needed to accommodate Plant Sciences and
new Central Chilled Water system.

Comprehensive Stewardship Level of service.

resources.
