| The mission of the Facilities Business Office (FBO) is to provide fiscal management (accounting, budget and analysis) and guidance/assistance in the areas of human resources, planning and administration to Facilities Management managers and other university administrators for use in short and long-term strategic decision-making . This department is comprised of two units, Finance/Budget and Human Resources. The primary goals of the Facilities Business Office are to: • Provide highly detailed, timely, accurate and insightful information in all business areas; • Administer the FM Employee Recognition and Awards Program; • Provide risk management services to ensure compliance by all units within Facilities Management; • Create appropriate HR and fiscal policies and procedures to ensure “best practices”; and • Act as the primary interface with central university personnel and fiscal groups. Budget/Finance Unit: Business Office staff members administer Facilities Management’s budget and support the department by processing all financial data for work/service requests and projects. Staff prepares and monitors all operating budgets, develops financial projections for receipt-supported activities, calculates labor charge rates, interfaces with the University’s central accounting system, and manages the financial component of the Facilities Work Management system—Archibus. The unit also manages purchase orders and departmental purchasing processes. Responsibilities have recently been expanded to include grant writing and grant management. Human Resources Unit: In coordination with the University's Central Human Resources Department, the Facilities Human Resources Unit oversees recruitment, training, performance management, payroll, and salary/leave administration for Facilities Management. HR staff members maintain FM employee personnel records and process all personnel actions including weekly time sheets. The unit serves as a reporting resource for the department in regards to overtime, training, recruitment and the administration of the Employee Recognition and Awards Program. |
