Facilities Management Benefits of FM for BSF Maximum benefits can be achieved by transferring all FM services to the LEP. These are: • Streamlines procurement routes and management overheads • Reductions in costs from bulk purchasing • Value for Money • Single point of contact • Risk transfer
Facilities Management BSF project type and FM category PFI Projects • 25 year contract • All FM services are expected to include: Caretaker, maintenance, Lifecycle works, cleaning, catering, etc. Design & Build Projects • 10 – 15 year contract options • FM services may vary from the recommended complete range of services similar to that of the PFI contracts, to the minimum requirement to satisfy PfS
Facilities Management Design & Build – the minimum FM requirement Each school must receive a minimum range of FM services to receive BSF investment. Each school will have to provide evidence to PfS that the facilities will be properly maintained and funds are ring-fenced for this purpose. This could be as follows: • lifecycle works - scheduled renewal or repairs of components during the whole life of the building • planned preventative maintenance – periodic servicing or works • reactive maintenance – on the spot repairs, works or events • grounds maintenance – all external works and maintenance • statutory compliance inspections and works – all building related legal obligations • caretaking services – contributes to the delivery of the above items
Facilities Management What is the process to determine the range of FM services required at each BSF school • Meet with Head teachers and key staff to discuss the opportunities and proposed BSF FM service options • Establish each schools existing FM and associated costs • Evaluate each schools existing FM services and range • Identify any gaps in the existing FM service • Estimate the affordability of FM services going forward using existing benchmark FM rates from BSF schools compared to the school’s current FM costs • Discuss all observations with Head teachers and key staff, review any findings
Facilities Management Next Steps • Submit OBC at the end of March 2008 • Draft FM Output specifications for all FM services • Produce estimate costs by the April 2008 • Work with schools during May 2008 to establish detailed school position • Macro to review all schools and advise on ‘marketability’ • BSF team to come back to schools with comments and advice
Facilities Management Key issues to be considered and managed going forward • Affordability and Value for money • Quality and performance of the FM service • Existing school staff issues including TUPE • Suitable and professional FM services staff • Monitoring and control of the FM services • Communication/ response of the FM services • Existing school FM services operating risks
