Summary

Staff asked the committee to forward a facilities condition assessment proposal from FMX that would create a districtwide 'live' asset tool integrated with the work‑order system; the quote amount as recorded in the transcript is garbled and not clearly specified. Committee voted 4-0 to send the request to the full board.

District staff asked the Facilities Committee to recommend that the board approve a contract with FMX to perform a districtwide facilities condition assessment and to provide a live asset management tool that will integrate with the district’s new work‑order system.

Mister McManus described the request as a renewal of comprehensive assessments that in the past were performed as static reports (the last full outside assessment cited in the transcript occurred in 2009). He said the FMX product will be "a live document" tied to work‑order history and will help set the capital improvement plan priorities.

When asked where the funds would come from, Mr. McManus said the district has recognized CIP savings and would use those funds to pay for the assessment. He asked the committee to forward the request to the full board; the committee voted to do so (vote recorded as 4-0).

Note on transcription: the dollar figure read into the record for the FMX quote in the transcript is garbled (appears as "$5.00 $6.09 31"); the committee discussion identifies CIP savings as the funding source, but the precise contract amount should be verified from the board packet or vendor quote before publication.
