A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with sustainable building operation and maintenance guidelines and policies:
The Facilities Management Department (FM) consists of multiple sections that are devoted to protecting and preserving State-supported facilities, equipment and assets. These consist of some 70 buildings covering nearly 3.9 million square feet and 360 acres over the Maryland (332), Paradise (10) and Shadow Lane (18) campuses. Sections include Facilities Maintenance, Energy Management, Custodial Services, Work Management, and Administrative Services. The department also performs capital projects using funds from various sources outside of the operations budget and does a variety of service and event-related work supported by customer accounts. Other maintenance entities support the remaining campus facilities and associated square feet.
FM has developed a number of in house competencies that compliment core activities, help control costs and complete work in a timely manner. An aggressive Preventive Maintenance program helps spot potential trouble areas before they manifest, maintains equipment in optimal working order, and keeps unplanned outages to a minimum. FM is committed to sustainability and efficiency. Energy consumption is rigorously monitored and methods to be more energy efficient are continuously researched. FM also operates a nationally recognized recycling center that is committed to providing comprehensive waste reduction, recycling and resource management services. Cleanliness levels are maintained in conjunction with industry standards using green seal approved cleaning supplies commensurate with budget limitations. An Integrated Pest Management Program uses natural techniques as a primary methodology to control pests and limit chemical exposures to those with sensitivities. All work is documented and maintained inside a state-of-the-art Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) and backed by process and procedure documents that specify how data is reviewed to insure accuracy.
FM’s efforts have been recognized by winning several awards since 2010. These included the Models of Efficiency Award from University Business Magazine, the Las Vegas Business Press Green Advocate Award, Maintenance Solutions Magazine Achievement Award for Sustainability, and an Honor Award from the Professional Grounds Management Society. FM also won the most prestigious award possible by being named a recipient of the APPA Award for Excellence. UNLV became the first Nevada institution to ever win this award, which carries with it a five year recognition period. In 2012, FM Grounds was the recipient of the inaugural Water Hero Award sponsored by the Water Conservation Coalition and Rebel Recycling placed second for Mountain West Conference participants in the EPA Game Day Challenge. In 2013, FM Grounds was honored once again with a second place landscape design from the Southern Nevada Water Authority. Finally, FM received a rare formal commendation in UNLV’s 10 year re-accreditation review by the Northwest Association of Accredited Schools.
