At the onset of a disaster, the American Red Cross may need to acquire and maintain temporary spaces or buildings for service delivery, operation administration, and movement of product during disaster operations. With few exceptions, Red Cross does not own these buildings or spaces. So, carefully selecting adequate facilities is vital to effectively serve the community. The purpose of Facilities Management Fundamentals is to provide direction on identifying, evaluating, acquiring, repairing, and closing temporary buildings or locations used in support of disaster operations. Multiple job tools are described and provided for future use. Come join us !
