Budget Year Minus 1 - Distribute Reactive Maintenance Budgets
|
Depending on how the region manages the distribution of reactive maintenance funds, there may be a requirement to provide advance notice of the base level reactive maintenance budgets. Outcome: |
| Activity |
|
1) Once the approved FACOPS program and FACOPS budget for the upcoming financial year has been advised by Estate Operations, the base level reactive maintenance budgets are to be determined. The regional estate program manager or equivalent is to determine the distribution of Reactive Maintenance (immediate and urgent), Routine Maintenance and Fixed Plant & Equipment Maintenance for each base service area in the region. |
| 2) Phasings should also be estimated. The baseline phasings should be based on 9% of budget each month except for December and January, when 5% of budget is applied. Local variations to this should also be applied to reflect local requirements. |
| 3) The relevant DEMS project records are to be updated so that cost centre allocations match the budgets and the forecast value of work phasings are entered. |
| 4) Daily controls and monthly reporting requirements for managing each of the base level reactive maintenance budgets are to be stated (or re-stated). Regional and/or local priorities for expenditure of reactive maintenance funds are to be developed or updated. |
| 5) Base Service Managers are to be advised of the budgets and reminded of the daily controls and monthly reporting requirements for reactive maintenance. |
