CDC: Buildings and Facilities

The Buildings and Facilities program works to ensure that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has safe and efficient facilities and equipment to carry out its mission and that public investments in these facilities are protected through effective maintenance and operations.

Rating

What This Rating Means

PERFORMING
Adequate

This rating describes a program that needs to set more ambitious goals, achieve better results, improve accountability or strengthen its management practices.
  • Buildings and Facilities lacked performance measures. Currently, the program tracks progress on building projects, placement of laboratorians into completed lab space, and efficiencies in the areas of energy, water, and leased space.
  • The program uses a master plan of CDC headquarters construction projects to target resources. Senior managers from CDC's centers, institutes, and offices helped develop the plan. The program guides repairs and improvements investments using priority rankings and systematic reviews by an internal board.
  • The program has a clear purpose and is well managed, but lacks a comprehensive evaluation to track its impact.
