DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Marion County Facilities Management manages over fifty large-scale vertical construction capital improvement program (CIP) projects valued at over one hundred million dollars. Due to Marion County's current aging building portfolio and continued growth projections, this construction trend is expected to continue for the foreseeable future.
Marion County Facilities Management has attempted to fill a vacant Project Manager position for over a year. During that time, the department absorbed many additional large-scale and accelerated projects, such as the new Medical Examiner's Office and Animal Services Campus. Marion County's accelerated growth has mandated that the Facilities Management Department increase its resources toward capital construction projects to serve Marion County's needs better.
To maintain these high-caliber project management services and expeditious delivery of project completion, the Facilities Management Director Jared Goodspeed requests to reclassify one vacant Project Manager position to an Assistant Director dedicated to capital construction. This dedication will improve project completion success by relieving delays in technical decision-making and lowering the design process time. This evolution will also aid in an interdepartmental succession plan and allow the correct level of resources to be dedicated to the vertical construction CIP division of the Facilities Management department.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Budget Impact of $25,168
