Reply to 7Point Op Implementation and Utilization
It’s extremely useful from an Operations perspective – it allows us to easily create tasks for our student staff to complete (and schedule when it needs to be completed), with up to date details on the setups and diagrams able to be attached, it’s been very effective. We also have made significant use of its Notes feature to be able to…

Reply to Zoom Alternative for Performances
Hey Cortney,
There are a couple of things worth checking to make sure you’re getting a good audio signal through Zoom. First of all, are you using an audio interface to get your microphone signal into the computer? Or are you using a USB mic to try this? Some USB mics may also have noise suppression built-in that you would have to adjust…

Facilities Job Descriptions (Full Time)
Hi folks
We have a full time Facilities Operations Manager and we are looking to update his job description (it’s been about 4 years). In doing this, I thought it would be helpful to see what other people have on their job descriptions for a full-time facilities person. It might jog our memories or inspire our thoughts on things he ‘just does’…

Zoom Alternative for Performances
Hi all!
We are getting more requests to livestream performances (bands, singers, etc.) and we are struggling with Zoom due to their background noise suppression settings. We have been unsuccessful in getting anything to come through well, despite making many adjustments on the settings. As a result, we are looking into options for an…

Dear colleagues,
Reaching out to those institutions who either have an art gallery on premises or designated area where student artwork is routinely displayed. We are partnering with a few student organizations to highlight student art each semester. I was wondering if anyone had a rubric they currently use to guide the selection process…

Reply to Laptop & Device Charging Checkout
Hi Kourtney,
I know you might have made a decision on these already but in case you haven’t I wanted to share that we have them in our basic needs center. They are very easy to use and the check out process we have in place works as we require the students to swap ID for charger. The devices hold a charge for up to 3 hours per device. Great…

We’re in the process of exploring diagramming software options for our university and are currently looking at <strong data-start=”255″ data-end=”296″>EventDraw, Cvent, Prismm, and Amadeus. I just learned that <strong data-start=”318″ data-end=”354″>Cvent and Prismm will be merging, which I imagine will shift the landscape a bit.
From past forum…

Dave Timmann started the discussion Friday Fodder in the forum Facilities & Operations a year ago
If your facility could talk, what would it complain about? I’ll start; elevators. We have just begun to modernize our four cars, but our elevators have been nothing short of a nightmare for operations. Two of our passenger elevators are out of service, and one is currently being renovated. This leaves us with only one operational passenger car…
