Effective M&O Practices Increase Efficiency
Well-designed M&O program can generate substantial energy savings for your district, in both new and older buildings
Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) Operations and Maintenance Best Practice Guide – “It has been estimated that M&O programs targeting energy efficiency can save 5% to 20% on energy bills without a significant capital investment.”
Energy Saving Strategies
Scheduled Maintenance – reinstate required maintenance procedures for filters, boilers, etc
Simple Repairs – Low-cost repairs that can be completed by in-house staff
Equipment tune-ups and calibration – can extend the life of equipment
Equipment Control – limiting equipment operation exclusively to occupied hours, developing proper procedures for after-hours, weekends.

District Events Calendar
■ Reduces school’s time manual scheduling
■ Reduces labor time & costs
■ Reduces energy costs due to increased efficiency
■ Reduces risk of human error
■ Increases likelihood of satisfied users
Event Driven Automation
Benefits Savings
Energy savings by enhanced mapping of occupancy to conditioning
Energy savings of 3% +, typically $9/student/yr
Operational savings thru automated process
Operational savings typically $6/student/yr
Increased cost recovery thru district invoicing
Avg. cost recovery $15 /student /yr
Total estimated savings of $30 per student per year
How does this compare to how things are happening now? Individual buildings are scheduled on a master
calendar – Buildings remain in a occupied status
– Manual overrides occur to accommodate after-hour events on some cases
Scheduling is EVENT driven and automatic – takes out human error and potential changes in start/stop times
