AOC SUPREME COURT BUILDING AND GROUNDS
Key Accomplishments in FY 2014
Streamlined Business Operations
The jurisdiction streamlined business operations and improved processes. These include improving procurement planning to ensure maintenance contracts are awarded with option years, documenting and standardizing work processes and collaboratively developing a formal Snow Removal Standard Operating Procedure and Training Request process.
Initiated Capital Budget Plan for Judiciary Building
The jurisdiction developed a 10-year Capital Budget Plan and annual budgeting process for the Thurgood Marshall Federal Judiciary Building (TMFJB). These efforts will help to prioritize and fund future project work to improve the building’s condition.
Initiated Retro-Commissioning
The jurisdiction advanced efforts to build a world-class maintenance program by initiating a retro-commissioning of Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning units and controls. A “Retro-commissioning Issues Log” of approximately 150 items was developed for further action—including mechanical and systems reprogramming issues.
What’s Next? FY 2015 Priorities
Continue TMFJB Capital Renewal Projects
The jurisdiction will continue its long-term capital renewal projects for the TMFJB. These projects include the roof replacement, garage renovation, elevator replacement, smoke control modifications, basic network replacement, facade restoration and cable TV replacement.
Commence East Facade Restoration
The jurisdiction will commence restoration work on the Supreme Court Building’s East Facade, pending final FY 2015 funding, to address the 1935 building’s deterioration from age, weather and nature. The West Facade Restoration was successfully completed in November 2013.
AOC UTILITIES AND CAPITOL POWER PLANT
Key Accomplishments in FY 2014
Achieved Energy Savings
The jurisdiction achieved significant energy savings with the commissioning of the Refrigeration Plant Revitalization (RPR) program phase 1 chillers to improve chilled water production efficiency. The jurisdiction also added an additional heat exchanger, expanding the free cooling system’s capacity by 35 percent, and installed two new variable speed feed water pumps to significantly improve steam system efficiency.
Expanded Safety Partnering Program
The jurisdiction added two new elements to the “Safety Partnering” program including a CPP Safety Orientation and “Safety Stop” language in all AOC contracts. The CPP Safety Orientation is a mandatory presentation to all contractor personnel to inform them of the CPP hazards and safety procedures.
Executed New Utility Services Agreements
The jurisdiction and the AOC General Counsel began replacing out-of-date service agreements with new Memoranda of Agreement (MOA) for non-AOC customer buildings serviced by the CPP. These include the Government Printing Office and Postal Square. An updated MOA with Union Station was completed in FY 2014.
What’s Next? FY 2015 Priorities
Deliver Major Infrastructure Improvements
The jurisdiction will focus on two infrastructure improvements while maintaining continuous operations and service reliability. The jurisdiction expects to award the Cogeneration Plant design and construction contract and complete construction on the RPR program, phases 2A and 2B.
For more information, see In Focus: Cogeneration at the Capitol Power Plant in Section I of this report.
Implement New Environmental Management System
The jurisdiction will fully implement the comprehensive new Environmental Management System to prevent pollution, ensure compliance with regulations and improve performance.
