Strategically Planning Avionics Laboratory's Facilities for the Future

Abstract

The Avionics Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base has a complex research and development mission. Doing its job right means that its facilities must effectively support that mission. This report establishes a strategic facilities planning methodology and a space management model that ties Avionics Laboratory's mission to its facilities to make sure the right amount and types of facilities are available when and where they are needed. It does so by comparing current and future space requirements (generated by current and future mission requirements) to its existing and anticipated space inventories. The resulting space deficit or surplus, along with space allocation criteria, lead to effective solutions for allocating avionics lab space. Comparing the existing space layouts to the optional future layouts results in an implementation strategy for achieving that proposed layout.
