Budgeting for Federal Facilities Maintenance and Repair

This compilation of documents centers on budgeting for the maintenance and repair of federal facilities, particularly in light of a recommendation suggesting allocating 2-4% of the facilities' current replacement value for this purpose. The main report, originating from the Federal Facilities Council, examines the application and impact of this guideline across various federal agencies. It identifies challenges in implementing the guideline, such as inconsistent definitions and calculation methods, and proposes best practices for determining budget needs and minimizing costs. Additionally, it includes perspectives from different agencies on their experiences with or reasons for not adopting the recommended budgeting approach, alongside the original findings and recommendations that prompted the study.
