This course provides funding strategies for both day-to-day facility operations and long-term capital projects. Participants will explore how to align annual budgets, bonds, notes, and reserve funds with evolving facility needs. Key topics include the basics of building a zero-based budget, energy management, staffing models (contracted vs. in-house), and cost analysis for services like snow removal, grounds maintenance, supplies, and utilities. The course also emphasizes collaboration with the business office to ensure strategic planning and effective resource allocation across all aspects of facility management.
