What is the Need?

Executive Order 13327 requires all major Federal agencies to report what facilities they own, assess their condition, and plan for full life cycle management.

Key metrics include:- Deferred Maintenance- Sustainment Requirements- Operations Costs- Plant Replacement Value (PRV)

Improved ARS Planning: Linking resource requirements to the facility inventory

Inventory of Representative Buildings

Inspection Process: Survey team covers major disciplines: mechanical,

electrical, architecture/building envelope Major equipment capacity and condition reviewed Room-by-room inspection & inventory of sample

buildings Detailed analysis of inventory data provided by sites Inventory verified with drawings and master equipment

Calibrate MARS Life Cycle Model

Site management provided actual staff and contract labor rates, mark ups, overhead, and unscheduled maintenance cost ratios

Also provided utilization measures for individual assets: operating hours, security, safety & permitting requirements

Unique components and maintenance protocols are defined where necessary

Over 240 unique components were identified and added to the MARS component/task library.

MARS estimates task-based deficiencies and future requirements for representative building models

Building models represent specific asset classes and age-size cohorts

Overall estimates for buildings were made by multiplying sample costs by the SF total for cohorts in each asset class

Summary of Estimates

Total building deferred maintenance is an estimated $317 million, with $198 million related to critical systems.

Assuming a plant replacement value of $3.1 billion, the building condition index ratio (1 - DM / PRV) is .90, an outcome commonly classified as “fair.”

Average annual sustainment costs are:

Buildings: $85 million (5-year average), or 2.7 percent of PRV

Structures: $6 million (50-year average), or 1.4 percent of PRV Average annual recapitalization costs are:

Buildings: $36 million, or 1.2 percent of PRV

Structures: $9 million, or 2.0 percent of PRV Average annual operating costs, excluding M&R, are:

Buildings: $67 million or 2.2 percent of PRV

Structures: Not estimated Total annual costs (not including deferred maintenance) are:

Buildings: $188 million, 6.1 percent of PRV, or $14.48 per gross square foot

Structures: $15 million, or 3.5 percent of PRV

Upcoming Deliverables for FY08

Re-evaluate and update PRVs Additional 10 percent (1.3 million GSFT) on-site inventory of

ARS buildings at:

- El Reno, OK

- Albany, CA

- Fargo, ND

- Weslaco, TX

- Boston, MA

Update estimates with current market data (labor, materials, equipment, PRVs)

Key Questions Going Forward

1) Should ARS assess 100% of its Real Property Assets?

2) Who should complete future assessments?

3) How often should ARS inspect its assets?

4) How and by who should the database be maintained?

5) Should ARS invest in a web-based application?

Critical Interaction with Sites

Data input Validation Site-specific reports Best MARS configuration

To answer the key questions, four topics must be addressed by the sites:

Two Questions about MARS

1) Do ARS sites want full capabilities or just viewer access?

2) Should MARS be installed as a client server or a web-based application?

Whitestone Recommendations

1) Should ARS assess 100% of its Real Property Assets?

Yes, if the detailed inventory and forecasts are utilized by the sites. If estimates serve only as a HQ approximation, then sampling is sufficient.

2) Who should complete future assessments?

If resources are sufficient, sites can complete assessments. For consistency, consider contractor support until 100% of the Real Property is assessed.

Whitestone Recommendations

3) How often should ARS inspect its assets?

Most Federal agencies inspect assets on a 5-year cycle (20% of assets per year).

4) How and by who should the database be maintained?

The database should be maintained annually with major repairs and replacements submitted by the sites and entered by Whitestone.

5) Should ARS invest in a web-based application?

Yes, web-based MARS meets more specifically ARS requirements.

Definitions of Deferred Maintenance

MARS deferred maintenance estimates do not include preventive maintenance, minor repairs, or recapitalization projects

FASAB Standard Number 6: “Deferred maintenance is maintenance not performed when it should have been or was scheduled…”

DOE: “for the purpose of reporting deferred maintenance …(it) is that cost required to restore a facility to its current use and as-built condition.”

MARS: Deferred Maintenance is “the cost of component replacement tasks not performed according to their prescribed frequency…and does not double count tasks that have missed their frequency more than once.”

Custodial. The custodial function cost factors represent the expense of cleaning offices, work areas, restrooms and common areas. They include cost of labor and supplies, equipment, and any necessary contract services. Trash removal costs are not included. The cost factors are based on survey data; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates.

Grounds. The grounds function includes any expense related to the maintenance of exterior areas, such as landscaping, snow removal, signage, sidewalks, and external parking lots. They include cost of labor and supplies, equipment, and any necessary contract services. The cost factors are model-based; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates.

Management. Real property management function describes all costs associated with facility management, including: public works, contracts, material procurement, facility data, furnishings, real estate, and engineering services. The cost factors is expressed as a fixed percentage of Property Replacement Value, and derived from case study values; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates.

Pest Control. Pest Control expenses cover indoor and outdoor pest control programs, separate from the grounds function. The cost factors are based on a micro-model developed by Whitestone Research; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates.

Energy. Energy represents all expenses related to the purchase, generation, distribution, and conservation of energy and source fuels necessary to operate a building. The main energy sources considered are electricity and natural gas, expressed in kBtus and Source Energy terms. Location indexes are based on local commodity costs, prevailing labor rates, and climatic variables.

Refuse. Refuse costs include all costs related to trash collection and disposal, pick-up services, fees, recycling operations and administration, composting, etc. Excludes handling and disposal of HAZMAT materials. Cost Factors are based on survey data; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates, and tipping fees.

Road Clearance. All expenses related to sweeping and removing snow and ice from paved areas including sidewalks, walkways, and parking lots. Cost factors are model-based; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates, and climatic variables (number of snow days, average annual snowfall).

Security. Security expenses relate to the physical security of buildings and occupants, and include personnel, operating, monitoring and maintaining security equipment, and patrol services. . The cost factors are model-based; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates.

Telecom Telecom expenses cover the purchase of all the services ordinarily associated with commercial activities, such as voice and data equipment and service subscriptions, maintenance. The cost factors are based on survey data; location indexes are based on relevant prevailing labor and material rates.
