Maintenance Department:  Proposed changes are geared toward improving service response and efficiency.

• Reassign transportation operators and laborer positions from Furniture Projects to Logistics Operations (Warehouse).  Furniture, Instructional Materials, Testing and Warehouse orders will be scheduled and planned at one location for a single delivery.  This will eliminate multiple trips.
• Reassign Maintenance Department Parts Warehouse personnel, currently assigned to  Maintenance East, West, Central, and Sites and Utilities, to Logistics Operations.  This will allow for a single point of contact in the day to day management of the Warehouse and purchasing of parts and supplies. 
• Organize departmental IT support under the supervision of Manager of Communications and Electronics Repair CMMS/IT Support, to more efficiently organize these functions.
• Organize the Custodial Operations Department to align with other departments within Maintenance and to reflect the additional support and training of custodians districtwide, in addition to the supervision of the District Environmental Team.

Transportation Department:  To implement the ESE, Safety and Security recommendations and to support the growth in the district, additional Transportation support positions are required.

• Additional Operations Manager assigned to manage student behavior.  This position will support drivers and schools as student behavior infractions and consequences are analyzed.  Training of drivers, consistent reporting and student interventions will be targeted. 
• Alignment of Transportation Managers (X03) will allow for interchangeability and cross training.
• Two additional Training and Recruitment Specialists will provide the trainers required to accomplish the additional training that has been recommended.
• As district program requirements have grown, regular programs operate on an extended day bell schedule.  Two additional Clerks and two additional Field Inspectors will give the overall coverage needed in order to have appropriate personnel available when regular runs are scheduled.

The reorganization of the Maintenance Department will represent a savings of $22,407.  Additional savings will be realized through improved management, efficiency, and inventory reduction.  The reorganization of the Transportation Department will represent a cost of $221,868.  The differential cost to the district for the Division of Facilities is $199,461.
