The M&O Budget – K-12 (2008)
What’s Not New…..
• You are understaffed; lots of stuff and not enough staff
• Your budgets are constrained• Demands and expectations are
increasing• Costs are rising on all fronts; labor, materials, and energy
What’s Not New - The Perception Gap
PerceptionGapWhat you do
What others think you do
What’s Required…..
• Leadership– Vision of the future and possibilities– Inspire people to change
• Management– Continuous Improvement of all
Processes; master of Change • Technology
– Decreasing in cost, opening doors
Reality of Maintenance
• Average school district is understaffed by 20-22% compared to standards
• Aging infrastructure and limitations on renovation funds
• The Perfect Storm – not staffed for preventive maintenance with equipment nearing or past expected life
Technology as a Solution
• Limited preventive maintenance on aging equipment means you are forced to “Run to Failure”
• “Run to Failure” results in costly and disruptive mechanical breakdowns
• Pre-emptive maintenance option to preventive maintenance

The ChallengeThe Solution
The Tools
“The Condition of America’s Schools: A National Disgrace”
• $266.1 Billion Unmet Funding Need for “School Infrastructure”– Addresses new construction and additions needed
for adequacy.– Also addressed deferred maintenance
• This is more than twice the 1995 GAO Report of $112B
Over $5000 per student needed just to address infrastructure needs.
