Southeastern Michigan Society for Healthcare Engineering (SMSHE)

From the Boiler Room to the Board Room – Communicating the VALUE of Infrastructure Investment to Non-Facility Leadership
2023-05-17 11:30 - 13:00 (America/Detroit) | Engineering Society of Detroit, 20700 Civic Center Drive, Suite 450, Southfield, MI, 48076, United States
Summary Description:
As an industry, we have historically underinvested in our infrastructure. It is a well-known fact, first recognized by the American Society of Healthcare Engineers (ASHE) in a report published
back in 2017. Now in 2023, the lagging financial challenges imposed by the pandemic will likely continue to exacerbate this situation for years to come; especially when considered
along with other macro-economic trends affecting the national and global economies. Simply put, there is a false narrative that money spent on infrastructure has no return. We all
know that’s not true. In this session, we will discuss the “business” of facility management and introduce a new financial framework to guide you as you construct and sell future budget
requests. Managing a facility is different than maintaining a facility.
Quoting Warren Buffet, “Price is what you pay, VALUE is what you get.” Does your non-facility leadership understand the VALUE of what you do? Let’s change the way we tell our story!

Learning Outcomes:
1. Understand the difference between a cost-center and a profit-center and challenge ourselves to redefine the “Business” of facility management.
2. Introduce the basic concepts of income statements and balance sheets to create a framework for communicating facility investment needs.
3. Conduct “Sales” Training 101. Use the Features, Advantages, Benefits framework to articulate the VALUE streams of infrastructure investment to non-facility leadership.
4. Identify common objections that are often used to justify budget limitations and discuss alternative means of “Selling” the ROI of infrastructure investment.

Summary Description:

This presentation explains how smoke migrated in a multi-story building fire and discusses how building codes have evolved to address this danger and why they mandate smoke containment in specific areas of a structure. Product applications and assemblies designed to meet building code requirements and limit vertical smoke migration via elevator hoistways and lobbies are explained.
Learning Objectives:

Explain the behavior of the fire and smoke in a mid- or high-rise building and how smoke migration can inhibit means of egress via elevator hoistways & lobbies and compromise the lifesafety of building occupants
Discuss how the building codes address smoke control in multi-level buildings and the building design measure that must be taken to enhance occupant safety
Evaluate and compare the product applications and assemblies designed to meet building code requirements and limit smoke migration via elevator hoistways and lobbies
List building design and product configuration options that comply with building code requirements for egress planning
