Mission
Provide a safe, comfortable workspace through quality facilities and responsive service.
Goals
OFM is committed to maintaining, and operating its owned/leased facilities in an energy efficient and sustainable manner that strives to achieve a balance that will realize high standards of space in an economically viable manner consistent with agency missions. In doing so and where appropriate, we encourage the use of life cycle concepts, performance measurement and verification methods that utilize good science and lead to sustainable buildings. Establish and follow a common set of sustainable guiding principles for integrated design, energy performance, water conservation, indoor environmental quality and materials aimed at helping state agencies:
- Reduce the total ownership/lease cost facilities;
- Improve energy efficiency and water conservation;
- Provide safe, healthy, and productive operated/leased environments; and,
- Promote sustainable environmental stewardship.
