Spring To-Do’s for Facility Professionals

Spring is a good season for facility managers. With weather improving, this is the time to get outside and ensure environments are safe and equipment is up to standard, guaranteeing a safe working environment for everyone in the organization, including schools which are continuing to ramp-up for kids returning to buildings.

A Spring To-Do List Should Include:

• Clean air conditioning and heating units, replace air filters
• Inspect and clean exhaust fans
• Investigate leaks in piping, tubing or fittings

Be confident that your building is safe for residents, you’re ready to conquer both everyday incidents and emergencies and that you have the best tools at your disposal.

Construction Projects. Buildings are continuously changing with multiple renovation projects underway simultaneously. But closeout packages often take months before they are completed and delivered to facilities teams -- resulting in a confusing mess of as-built drawings and information. ARC Facilities has solved this construction information problem with a Construction Projects monthly service that ensures your documents are organized, accurate, and available instantly at the end of each project.

As always, we’re here to help you cover more ground, be more responsive, be more efficient and find the documents you need quickly.
