<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Here's a link to a Google Doc I'm using to outline equipment management here. Of course it doesn't guarantee that anything will actually be done, but it does keep us in the que for resources. The real key is to update it every year and keep sending it in with the new information.<br>

<div dir="ltr"><div>I have just completed a full review of all of our systems in response to a request from Senior Staff. They are putting together a long-range budget plan and I want to make sure we are on their radar. I've included inspection intervals, likely replacement time (10 years for lighting fixtures and controls--'tho we all are using stuff that is MUCH older, I'm sure) and also an indication of both life-safety factors (rigging, for example) as well as how important it is for our teaching mission (LED fixtures, for example). Happy to share if if you'd like.<br>
