Facility Maintenance Decisions magazine has selected the eight recipients of the 2015 Facility Maintenance Decisions Achievement Awards.
The award program recognizes the role maintenance and engineering departments play in the successful and efficient operation of the nation's institutional and commercial facilities as determined by online voting, a panel of judges and the magazine's editors. The following maintenance and engineering departments will receive this year's awards:
Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston
Oral Roberts University, Tulsa, Okla.
Frederick County (Md.) Public Schools
Frito-Lay Facilities, Plano, Texas
Winston-Salem/Forsyth (N.C.) County Schools
Arlington (Texas) Independent School District

For the third time in the program's six-year history, Texas Children's Hospital has been recognized. The hospital also won awards in 2010 and 2011. Broward College received its second award, with its first recognition coming in 2011.
“The overall quality of the entries in this year's awards program was outstanding, and this year's recipients truly demonstrated the value of their departments to their organizations,” says Dave Lubach, the magazine's associate editor. “Each of the award recipients demonstrated all of the qualities that make up successful maintenance and engineering departments, presenting innovative ideas that produced energy and financial savings.”
