This article is an excerpt from an interview with golf course architect Kevin Norby.What are the most important considerations for a developer when choosing a golf course designer? Knowledge and experience. As an owner, you want to make sure you're working with someone who can guide you through the project approval process and provide some assurance that, when complete, the project will be successful. In particular, it is important that the client det
Congratulations! You’re the new maintenance manager of Megamonolith Corporation. Although you’re exited about the position, you realize you have your work cut out for you. Megamonolith recently bought out another company, and you’re assigned to the site. During your first six months, you conduct a facilities audit and discover that the prior maintenance program consisted only of breakdown repairs. (For information about facility audits, please refer to my white paper “The Facilities Audit” available through my website at www.fps-fm.com.)
One of the first things you need to do is establish a work coordination and management program that helps you and your staff identify, prioritize, plan, and track corrective actions. The same process must be used by everyone involved in maintenance, and at every location. How can you do this?
The system we propose provides these important benefits:
1.Easy retrieval and dissemination of information.
2.Ensures immediate response for emergencies and safety related issues.
3.Avoids wasted time.
4.Provides easy to follow guidelines and standards.
5.Uses off the shelf software.
6.Establishes procedures.
7.Highly cost effective.
The central point of a maintenance planning system is the Work Reception and Coordination Center, or WRCC. Depending on the size of your facilities, it may be a group of personnel or a single specialist who may even be an outsourced service provider. The WRCC is a single point of submission for all work requests; prioritizes and coordinates all work requests, and provides a current status of all work in process. Through use of database applications, the WRCC provides critical information including priority, lead and assist shops or contractors, and ensures that standardized forms and processes are used.
A word about priority. Regardless of the final form of your maintenance planning program, you must ensure that work requests are responded to in the proper manner. Here’s a suggestion:
Priority 1: Threat to life, health, or security. Requires immediate, on-site response.
Priority 2: Impairs working conditions, affects ADA/handicapped access or code requirements but does not meet Pri-1 criteria. Requires acknowledgment within 1 business day.
Priority 3: Highly desirable, will improve productivity, customer service and/or work conditions.
Requires acknowledgment within 2 business days. Priority 4: Desirable, routine work or improves community relations. Requires acknowledgment within 2 business days.
Some companies establish another high level priority for work requests from C-level personnel, which could be listed following either Priority 2 or 3 in the above matrix.
Here's a flow chart for the work request: 1. Incoming work request --> Priority 1?
Yes- notify Facility Manager and send work order immediately to lead shop. Lead shop begins work.
No- go to step 2. 2. Decision- does job meet criteria for planning?
Yes- request goes to maintenance planner and then to Facility Manager for approval. After Facility
Manager approval, the work order is sent to the lead shop or filed for later use when funds and
resources are available.
No- If within WRCC authority, work order is generated and sent to lead shop for action. If request is

Accounting software has been gaining momentum over the past years. Companies which use these software vouch for their efficiency to handle loads of accounting functions but do not add up to the costs unlike hiring a pool of trained and licensed accountants. Basically, an accounting software functions like a true accountant who handles accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll and trial balance. Furthermore, the software can accommodate other functions which are usually handled by a staff. It too serves as an acco

Rob hangs around when others are talking, always lingers a little after meetings, and just starts talking when people are working. His game is to get people talking whether they want to talk or not.Once people are talking, he jumps in or says something like, 'I could not help hearing what you were talking about.' Of course, he could help it. He made a point to hear. Nonetheless, he now expresses his opinion. Whatever the topic, he has an opinion.His opinion is that things are a mess. He thinks things sho

I heard this story told about film director Cecil B. DeMille. I have no way of knowing if it's true, but the story beautifully captures the communications stall.Mr. DeMille spared no expense to part the Red Sea for his epic production of The Ten Commandments. Actors, engineers, horses, and assorted other animals were everywhere. The dust, heat, and noise were ferocious. Finally, everyone was ready to go and DeMille called out, "Roll the cameras" and "Action." After he finished shooting the scene, DeMille called
