Charter: Address technical, administrative, sustainability, and policy issues associated with the operation, maintenance, and repair of federal facilities.

Current Activities: The committee is compiling a compendium of best practices for the operation and maintenance of federal facilities. Issues to be addressed range from reliability centered maintenance to sustainable design to indoor air quality. A major objective is to describe the practices and their purposes in laymen's terms to increase the understanding of the importance of these practices among decision makers, building users, and others.
