BEST PRACTICES FOR FACILITIES PROFESSIONALS
ONE STOP SHOPPING o
ENCYCLOPEDIC
PROCESS and SYSTEMS ORIENTED
Putting the focus on the big picture in building and facility management
and engineering yields greater shareholder value, safety, efficiency, cost
reduction, and overall economy of operation. Facilities Engineering and
Management Handbook is a wide-lens guidebook that offers best practices,
a genuine insight, and essential systems approach to commercial, industrial,
and institutional facilities management, engineering, design, construction,
operation, maintenance, and renovation.
As a practicing facility manager or engineer, you spend untold hours
compiling information from brochures, professional publications, books, and
other sources telling you how to manage your facilities. This handbook will
simplify your job. It will be a first stop for you on the journey to answers
and often the only stop you need to make. It will help you to o run your
facilities better o better serve your customers o incorporate good management
practices o relate effectively to the organization's goals and strategies
o coordinate facilities with the management of information technologies and
human resources o incorporate computer technologies into facilities management
o contribute to corporate profits o and improve your career skills for the
future.
Written for everyday use as a complete desktop reference for facilities
executives, managers, consultants, constructors, operators, engineers, and
designers, Facilities Engineering and Management Handbook gives you all the
tools you need for analyzing, comparing, anticipating, and managing the
implications of engineering, maintenance, operating, and design decisions,
and integrating facility systems for best results. The Handbook's life-cycle
approach helps you put all relevant issues in context-cost, durability,
maintainability, operability, safety, and more-throughout your facility.
As you glance through this book, you'll find that Facilities Engineering
and Management Handbook can help you: o make farsighted, well-integrated
facilities and building engineering and management decisions o target facilities
as strategic assets o decide which projects to fund o coordinate architectural,
structural, mechanical, electrical, HVAC, control instrumentation, and other
needs in any type of building o handle today's concerns and technologies,
such as smart buildings and telecommunications networks o find information
on all needed codes and standards governing design, installation, operation,
and maintenance of buildings and facilities o understand what information
you need to automate and why o evaluate loads on mechanical and other systems
o have the advantage of using computer-aided design and management systems
o prepare a whole-facility economic analysis o apply useful guidance on complex
specialized facilities, such as hospitals, laboratories, prisons, airports,
and industrial process plants-plus integrated complexes such as colleges,
malls, and government installations o plan for and integrate fire, safety,
security, data, communications, lighting, controls, fuel, power, plumbing,
and many other types of systems. It's a timely, all-in-one guide of best
practices for facility managers and designers who want to be at the forefront
of their field.
