Facilities Engineering Management System Study: A Review of Functional Areas in Selected Army Installation Directorates of Engineering and Housing.

摘要

The U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (USACERL) was tasked by the Facilities Engineering Division, Office of the Assistant Chief of Engineering (now part of the U.S. Army Engineering and Housing Support Center) to conduct an indepth study of the Facilities Engineering Management System (FEMS), a methodology developed to manage and maintain the Army's real property. FEMS is used by Headquarters, Department of the Army; the major commands; and Army installation Directorates of Engineering and Housing (DEHs). The overall study goals are to describe how the Facilities Engineering management process is conducted, how Facilities Engineering functions are actually carried out, and to determine what changes are needed in each functional area of the DEH. This report presents a review of the functional areas in selected DEHs based on data collected on seven site visits using a structured interview format. The purpose of the site visits was to describe how Facilities Engineering functions are actually carried out. (KR)
