Comprehensive planning and prioritization
DBI identified and priced more than $2,500,000 in deferred maintenance work outside of the annual operations budget, with projects ranging from structural repairs to duct work deep cleaning to bathroom modifications to fire alarm upgrades. DBI then worked with the facilities team to prioritize each deferred maintenance item as “high,” “medium,” or “low,” and developed a plan to address them according to priority, while operating within the parameters of available funds. DBI has since transitioned into a hands-on project management role and has developed procurement standards, managed competitive bid processes, overseen the engagement of contractors, and managed the implementation of the work.
