Comparison of Levels of Service for Building Operations

Abstract

The Public Buildings Service, one of three services within the General Services Administration, provides work environments for more than 1 million federal employees nationwide. PBS serves as a builder, developer, lessor, and manager of federally owned and leased properties providing a full range of real estate services. As part of its program, PBS periodically compares the costs of its building operations with private-sector costs for these services as published in the Building Owners and Managers Association Experience Exchange Report. This report conveys the results of a study to help PBS better understand the cost differences between its building operations and those of the private sector. The study compared the levels of service provided by PBS building managers with those provided by private-sector organizations. It looked specifically at the costs of utilities, cleaning, roads and grounds, and maintenance and repair services.
