INTRODUCTION OF FACILITIES PLANNING

All equipment, material, and personnel requirements must be considered

when calculating space requirements for each activity. Generate alternative
designs.

4. Evaluate the alternatives

Evaluate alternative facilities plans. On the basis of accepted criteria, rank
the plans specified. For each, determine the subjective factors involved and
evaluate whether and how these factors will affect the facility or its operation.

5. Select the preferred design

Select a facilities plan. The problem is to determine which plan, if any, will
be the most acceptable in satisfying the goals and objectives of the
organization. Most often, cost is not the only major consideration when
evaluating a facilities plan. The information generated in the previous step
should be utilized to arrive at the final selection of a plan.

6. Implement the design

Implement the facilities plan. Once the plan has been selected, a

considerable amount of planning must precede the actual construction of a
facility or the layout of an area. Supervising installation of a layout, getting
ready to start up, actually starting up, running, and debugging are all part of
the implementation phase of facilities planning.
