A Study of Property Control at Baylor University Medical Center

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the best property control system for the Baylor University Medical Center, Dallas, Texas. A thorough search was made of all current literature and interviews conducted to record and evaluate the current concepts of control, systems of control, and property control systems. A two-week study was conducted at Baylor University Medical Center and the present system was found lacking in many key elements of control. It was therefore concluded that the best property control system for the Baylor University Medical Center was the centralized Property Control Branch system. Recommendations were that the conclusion indicated above be approved; that a committee be appointed to study the staffing requirements of the Property Control Branch; that written policies and procedures concerning the control of property be formulated; and that a complete wall-to-wall inventory of all capital assets be conducted immediately.
