Facility Maintenance Decisions Achievement Awards

Entry for Facility Maintenance Decisions Achievement Awards

DEADLINE: Judges must receive all materials by June 14, 2019.

Why Enter?

Everybody likes a little recognition, and maintenance and engineering departments are no exception. In fact, they might need it more than any other departments in institutional and commercial facilities, given the vital contributions they make to a facility's operations and mission.

That's where the Facility Maintenance Decisions Achievement Awards come in. They recognize the essential contributions departments make every day.

But if you're hesitant about entering, here are three great reasons you should:

Understanding.
Too many people in facilities just don't understand the importance of maintenance and engineering. Describing a noteworthy achievement can help everyone understand exactly why your department matters.

Recognition.
Your department does good work. Why not get some recognition for a job (or jobs) well done? You've earned it.

Marketing.
Letting everyone know your department is essential and valuable can raise the department's profile and help you earn a seat at the table when important decisions need to be made.
