Welcome to Facilities Maintenance 

The Operations & Facilities Maintenance (OFM) office is responsible for the execution of routine, daily maintenance calls, and building work requests for the USF Health organization. The facilities maintenance routine work is performed by the Tampa campus Physical Plant personnel. The role of OFM is to submit work requests for departments and to instruct customers on how to submit routine work requests. 

Tasks Performed and Facilitated by the OFM

• Facility State Fire Marshall Reports
  Annual and surprise inspections are conducted by the State Fire Marshall accompanied by Tampa campus Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) personnel. Correction of work requires coordination with Tampa campus physical plant or outside contactors. Funding for these efforts could either be by Tampa campus Physical Plant Department or HSC.
  
  
• Hazardous Waste Program Coordination 
  Our purpose is to inventory and track all USF Health chemical and hazardous waste streams in collaboration with the Tampa campus EH&S staff using the the HITS (Hazardous Waste Inventory Tracking System). 
  
  
• Life Safety Building Evacuation Plans
  A collaborative effort is made with EH&S, and the campus ADA Coordinator to develop appropriate evacuation routes and route postings for all HSC buildings.
   
• Facility Warranty Issues
  Facility warranty repairs are routinely facilitated thru OFM and the contractor of record. Warranty items are system or building components that stop working less than one year after construction.
  Contact our HSC Facilities Office (813) 974-3017 if there are any noted system or building issues. 
  
  
• Access/Security/Keys
  All key and card access requests are processed and granted through the OFM office. Card access and new keys requests are made by submitting a USF Health Key Request form to the HSC Facilities Office.
  
  
• Procedures for establishing a Facilities Renovation or Building Alternation Projects.
  The process for establishing a project involves initiating and completing a USF Health Space Impact Request form.
