DEFINITIONS AND ACRONYMS
DEFINITION DESCRIPTION
CRANE, CATEGORY 1 Portal cranes, Hammerhead cranes, Locomotive cranes, Derricks, Floating cranes
(YD), Tower cranes, Container cranes, Mobile cranes (except those indicated as category 4), including truck, cruiser, crawler, warehouse/industrial cranes, and cranes used for dragline, pile driving, clamshell, magnet, bucket work, and Aircraft crash cranes.
CRANE, CATEGORY 2 & 3 Cranes with rated capacities of 20,000 pounds or greater are category 2. Examples are Overhead traveling cranes, Gantry cranes (rail mounted), Wall cranes, Jib cranes, Pillar cranes, Pillar jib cranes, Monorails and associated hoists, Fixed hoists, including chain falls. Pedestal mounted commercial boom assemblies (fixed length, telescoping, and articulating types) attached to stake trucks, trailers, flatbeds, or railcars, or stationary mounted to piers, etc., with OEM rated capacities less than 2,000 pounds.
CRANE, CATEGORY 4 Commercial truck mounted cranes, Truck mounted articulating boom cranes, Pedestal mounted commercial boom assemblies (fixed length, telescoping, and articulating types) attached to stake trucks, trailers, flatbeds, or railcars, or stationary mounted to piers, etc., with OEM rated capacities of 2,000 pounds and greater. Commercial truck mounted cranes and truck mounted articulating boom cranes with OEM capacities of 2,000 pounds and greater require a licensed operator even if the cranes are down rated below 2,000 pounds capacity for administrative purposes.
EQUIPMENT, COLLATERAL Encompasses built-in and large substantially affixed equipment/property that is normally acquired and installed as part of a facility project.
EQUIPMENT, INSTALLED Encompasses building-type equipment, built-in equipment, and large, substantially affixed equipment/property, and is normally acquired and installed as part of a facility project. Installed equipment is normally required to make a facility useful and operable. Removing such equipment would impair the usefulness, safety, or environment of the facility or the facility restoration work required after its removal, is substantial.
EQUIPMENT, PERSONAL
PROPERTY
Personal property equipment includes all equipment other than collateral equipment.
Such equipment, when acquired and used in a facility or a test apparatus, can be severed and removed aster erection or installation without substantial loss of value or damage thereto or to the premises where installed.
FACILITIES LIFE CYCLE A facilities life cycle is divided into four stages, requirements (planning and design), acquisition (construction and acceptance), stewardship (operations, maintenance and repair), and disposal.
FACILITIES MAINTENANCE
MANAGEMENT
The planning, prioritizing, organizing, controlling, reporting, evaluating, and adjusting of facilities maintenance operations to support the CNO/NAVFAC facilities policy and objectives and satisfy customers’ facility needs. Defined by the International Facility Management Association as “the practice of coordinating the physical workplace with the people and work of the organization.”
Integrated Maintenance Program
(IMP)
IMP is a recurring state-of-the-art, reliability-centered inspection, testing, maintenance and repair program that determines best practices for managing the functions and consequences of failures of facilities equipment and system components. IMP encompasses accepted commercial practices, including reactive, preventive, predictive and proactive maintenance, into one optimal program. The IMP approach gives the Contractor full responsibility to maintain systems and equipment and perform repairs whenever necessary to ensure equipment and systems are operational and remain in a constant state of readiness. Service calls will not be issued for accomplishment of repairs on systems and equipment maintained under IMP.
LIFE-CYCLE COSTS A form of economic analysis that considers the total cost of owning, operating, and maintaining a building or system over its useful life.
MAINTENANCE, PREVENTIVE Maintenance designed to increase the availability of the facilities/equipment by reducing the number of unexpected breakdowns or service interruptions. It is any planned maintenance activity that improves equipment life and avoid any unplanned maintenance requirements.
MANAGEMENT
INFORMATION SYSTEMS-
MAINTENANCE
A computerized system that will provide sufficient information for management to evaluate differences between budgets and actual costs and evaluate performance.
REPAIR Repair is the restoration of facilities or equipment to such a condition that it may be effectively utilized for its designated purposes by overhaul, reconstruction, or replacement of constituent parts or materials which have deteriorated by action of the elements or usage, and which have not been corrected through maintenance. This term also applies to replacement of the entire unit or system if beyond economical repair. The intent of repair is to have the equipment at normal working condition.
REPLACEMENT Replacement, as a distinct work element, is confined to a program of planned replacement of a facility or its components. It may be further limited to major components such as air conditioning compressors, furnaces or hot water heaters.
Replacement is performed when the equipment has reached the end of its useful life;
when it no longer can perform due to degradation of its internal components and repair is no longer cost effective. Included under the replacement would be the major rebuilding of any component, since rebuilding also restores performance.
RESTORATION Restoration of real property to such a condition that it can be used for its intended purpose. Includes repair or replacement work to restore facilities damaged by inadequate sustainment, excessive age, natural disaster, fire, accident or other causes.
SUSTAINMENT Maintenance and repair activities necessary to keep a typical inventory of facilities in “normal working condition”. Sustainment includes regularly scheduled maintenance as well as cyclical major repairs or replacement of components that occur periodically over the expected service life of the facilities.
WEIGHT HANDLING
EQUIPMENT (WHE)
Any work required to return a facility, system, equipment or component to normal working condition. Trouble calls are minor facility problem requests or requests for facilities-related work that are too small to be planned and estimated.
