Equipment Identification Process
The Equipment Identification (EQ ID) Process provides a comprehensive maintenance service to our campus and is critical to our organization's purpose. As buildings and projects are completed, it is important that FOM knows the information listed below so that we can provide timely service to the building occupants.
- Equipment being installed with critical equipment information
- Location of equipment
- Manufacturer's information and manuals
The documents below describe the process for Planning, Design and Construction (PDC) and their contractors to provide FOM information about equipment installed during projects. This information includes description, specifications, manufacturer, and location of each piece of equipment. From this information, an asset label is applied to the equipment for tracking and identification. Following substantial completion, we can begin regular preventive maintenance and support to the building's purpose through regular service to the equipment.
