MISSION Proactive approach towards maintaining and improving facilities in support of the Research, Teaching, and Extension mission of IFAS.
CONSTR TRUCTI CTION We have the knowledge and experience to build to your Units need. We will work with our construction contractors to ensure a quality building is constructed within budget and in a timely manner. RENOVAT ATIONS Need a renovation project completed? Need your carpet replaced or maybe your office hasn’t been painted in ten years? Do you want to turn a conference room into a suite of offices? Need new lab cabinets? Call us! MAINTE TENANC ANCE & REPAIR We have purchased a new building maintenance system called INFOR, which has all your building equipment parts loaded so we can get to your repairs quickly. Placing a work order request has never been so convenient. GROUNDS DS Besides keeping the IFAS grass, shrubs and trees cut on campus…now we are venturing out into the world of landscaping. Let us know how we are doing! LAND D TRANSACTI CTIONS We got your acreage! We can help you sell
- r purchase state property. If you need a
sublease drafted, license agreement or MOU, we can help. CONTR TRAC ACTS TS

Alarms and Fire Sprinkler are inspected annually for your safety! UTILITI TIES Have you ever wondered who processes all your utility invoices? We do! Need a change of service or want to know your Units electric or water cost for the month or year? Let us know and we can send you a report. INSURANC ANCE FPO maintains insurance for your buildings and their
- contents. If one of your buildings get damaged due to
a fire, storm or lightning strike-contact us. WAREHOUSE SERVICES We stock all your basic needs for any building and equipment preventive maintenance

UF/IFAS FACILITIES PLANNING AND OPERATIONS What is Plant Operations and Maintenance (PO&M)?
- PO&M consists of two activities: Maintenance and Utilities.
- The funds are generated when new space is added on campus.
- Legislatively appropriated funds based upon type of facility; initiated in 1989.
- PO&M funds are authorized for expenditures relating to the maintenance of
facilities and grounds.
- IFAS PO&M Total - $3,778,325
- Utilities - $2,169,249
- Maintenance - $1,609,076
- Maintenance distribution:
- RECs/Departments/Units - $934,920
- FP&O (campus) - $674,156
Why is Deferred Maintenance so extensive?
Building
30,000 GSF Laboratory/Office Building 1 acre site on main campus miles of fencing irrigation wells miles of graded roads acres of developed research plots 30,000 GSF Laboratory/Office Building 500 acre IFAS site 20 miles of fencing 4
- 10" irrigation wells
4 miles of graded roads 300 acres of developed research plots PO&M funding does not account for research and teaching space that exists outside of buildings. There are unique conditions associated with IFAS' Land Grant Mission. Not only does IFAS operate and maintain state-of-the-art laboratory facilities, but also operates and maintains several thousand acres of animal facilities and agricultural research plots.
What do these two buildings have in common? They both receive the same amount of PO&M funding!
