Our Facility Health Assessment is a high level snapshot of the overall “health” of your facility based on specific measurable and benchmarked data points. There is not an onsite visit required or a 2-3 day site inspection by one of our Facility Stewardship Specialists.
Facility Stewardship is more than words strung together or a “cute” pairing of words. It is a methodology and intentional approach to stewarding facilities that have been entrusted to the steward. The term “Facility Management” is common but is limiting and myopic in its approach.
Stewardship is the careful and responsible leadership of something entrusted to one’s care, while management is solely the act or skill of controlling and making decisions. The practice of Facility Stewardship has a component of “management” but is a collection of interconnected services, educational offerings and products that drills down in the real heart of caring for and stewarding the built environment.
Components for the Facility Stewardship Methodology include but are not limited to:
Onsite and virtual training those entrusted with facilities to steward
Education courses and offering to add further continuing education and certification processes
Facility Condition Assessment to provide actionable assessments for the facility steward to process and address accordingly
Life Cycle Planning through a web based application to assist organizations address and plan for inevitable capital reserve requirements
Work Order and Asset Management software to efficiently address the operational aspects of an intentional stewardship program
Internet of Things applications that increases operational and energy efficiency for facility owners and operators
Event Management software to best steward the utilization of their facilities.
In summary, Facility Stewardship is a methodology and systematized process for efficiently and effectively stewarding ones physical facilities.
