The role of facility design can be understood by focusing on such factors as: Facility components Facility layout Materials Quality and types of construction Equipment Systems Components and Layout The facility components dictate the needs for facility maintenance, renovation, and operation. The presence of recreational facilities, kitchens, food and beverage outlets, convention space, meeting rooms, and extensive landscaped grounds will all create maintenance needs. ¢ȱ ȱ ěȱȱ ǯȱȱ Ȭȱ ȱ ¢ȱ ȱ more complex building systems and concerns. In addition, high-rise facilities bring needs and costs for such items as elevator maintenance and window cleaning.

Materials, Quality, and Types of Construction ȱȱȱȱȱȱ ȱěȱȱ¢ȱȱȱǰȱȱ also renovation needs and such operating costs as energy and insurance. Most seasoned hospitality personnel (and a number of homeowners) have experienced maintenance problems caused by poor material selection—for example, slippery Ěȱǰȱ ȱ ȱȱ ȱ ȱ ȱ ȱȱ ǰȱ ȱ ȱ product failure due to a defect.

If the building is well constructed, the maintenance manager’s duties will in fact focus primarily on maintenance. However, if the quality of construction is substandard, the maintenance manager may quickly be forced into the construction business.

Other equipment may be suitable for residential use, but not durable enough to last under constant usage.

Information about equipment lifetime and maintenance cost can be helpful in understanding maintenance needs and in planning equipment purchases.

The Role, Cost, and Management of Hospitality Facilities 151 life of the equipment can be prolonged somewhat. However, as the equipment reaches and exceeds this expected service life, management should anticipate more frequent failures and a need to invest additional labor and materials to keep the equipment operational. Repairability. The repairability of equipment involves several issues. Property ěȱȱȱȱǰȱ ȱȱȱ¢ȱȱȱ- ȱȱ¢ȱȱǯȱȱȱȱȱȱȱśŖȱȱȱȱ of the POM account is expended on items other than payroll.

This is one good reason to check on service and parts availability and quality before you sign the purchase agreement. The repair of equipment (and facilities) must never jeopardize safety. Equipment (and facilities) should not be repaired in a way that bypasses, disables, or compromises safety features. A repaired electric cord with the grounding plug removed, a repaired lawnmower without a discharge guard, or a repaired fan with its belt guard removed may function properly, but each is a potential safety hazard to both employees and guests.

To provide guests the option of regulating heating and cooling of their guestrooms and to avoid using through-the-wall packaged room units, many hotels choose centralized (fan-coil) heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) units for guestrooms. In contrast with packaged units, centralized units have a large amount of additional equipment besides what is in the guestroom, but, from ȱ ȬȬȱ ǰȱ ȱȱȱ Ĝǯȱ ȱ ȱ ȱ are boilers, chillers, cooling towers, pumps, and a variety of control devices.

And the actions and expectations of other departments relative to facilities need to be the same as those in the facilities area if the customers—paying and internal—are to have their needs met.

In addition, the proper repair and operation of a variety of building equipment and systems are required to ensure safety. Examples here include such items as ensuring furniture is in good repair and that no electrical shorts exist in lamps and around pool areas. Safety and security also involve the standards, methods, and procedures used to maintain and care for the facility. Facilities employees need to safely conduct their work following procedures that do not endanger themselves or others.

Cost control has high priority in the activities of the facilities department; at times, it is top priority. Costs over which the facilities manager can exercise some control are utilities (fuel, electricity, water, and related items), maintenance and operations (including labor, materials, and contracts), and capital expenditures (including FF&E and major building equipment and systems replacement).

The asset management role of the facilities engineer is one in support of the broader asset management role of today’s professional asset manager. One of the asset manager’s primary responsibilities is the protection of the asset. Failure of the manager or prior owner to maintain the physical plant of the hotel adequately may—and most likely will—result in the need to replace key systems and components well before the end of the assets’ normal lifespan.

A facilities manager who thinks like an asset manager is going to be a valuable “asset” to any hotel operation and a valued “asset manager” for the building’s owner.

Management Contracts and Franchise Agreements Management contracts may require management to fund reserves for future maintenance and repair needs, to solicit the owner’s approval before making buildingrelated expenditures, and to report to the owner regarding how funds are used. A requirement that the operator fund reserves for replacement of FF&E is a common provision of management contracts. Less common are reserves established for non-FF&E repairs.

Facilities Managers in Lodging Operations Individuals in charge of the lodging facility may have one of a variety of titles such as Director of Engineering, Chief Engineer, Director of Property Operations, or Director of Facilities. Their responsibilities vary as well. Small economy lodging operations have Directors of Engineering (DOE) who do much of the work themselves and require more technical than managerial skills. At larger properties and those with more elegant interiors, the DOE is much more of a manager, con- ȱȱȱȱȱěȱȱ ȱȱȱȱȱ demands.

165 6 Hospitality Facilities Management Tools, Techniques, and Trends From Hospitality Facilities Management and Design, Third Edition by David M. Stipanuk The ideal [engineer] is he who sees further than the mere production of power— who also follows it to the logical conclusion: satisfactory service to the guest at the lowest possible costs to the management. The engineer to succeed must be able to work with department heads and employees in departments that consume the products he manufactures. They must be impressed with the necessity for the engineer and his associates. Next to the manager I believe the engineer can serve as the most valuable man in the organization of a hotel that has a complete modern plant. The engineer in such an organization should be responsible for the physical upkeep of the house. Under his direction should be the electricians, plumbers, carpenters, decorators, masons, machinists, telephone men, laundry superintendent, silversmiths, and all engine room employees. He should be responsible for the inspection and maintenance of every piece of mechanical equipment in the house. And it should be possible for him to requisition for whatever he needs in his department. His department should operate on a carefully prepared budget. He should at all times receive reports from the accounting department so that he will know where he stands. One of the greatest weaknesses in the American hotel system is the manager’s failure to work more closely with the man who is responsible for the “Heart of the House.” In order to do so it is not necessary that he know all there is to know ȱěȱ¢ȱȱȱ¢ǰȱȱǰȱȱǯȱȱ he can learn the highlights about these in a few hours of study. An engineer does not expect a manager to know as much about engineering ȱȱǰȱȱȱȱȱ¢ȱȱȱȱȯ ȱĞȱ all are the manager’s problems as well. —Gaston Lauryssen, 1929 ȱȱęȱȱȱȱȱȱ¢ȱȱȱ¢ȱ ȱ¢ȱ ȱǯȱȱ ȱ ȱ ¢ȱ ȱ ȱ ȱ ȱ ǯ
