1.2.1 Center Facility Project Managers (FPMs) shall comply with NASA-required best practices regardless of the funding source (e.g., NASA Program, CECR Account, or external funds). Required best practices include the following:

a. Implementing front-end planning as developed by the Construction Industry Institute (CII) using comprehensive planning tools such as the Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI), team building, and other techniques (see CII Best Practices).

b. Investigating the site and providing sufficient preliminary design to develop a full project scope, assess risks, identify construction complexities, and provide a realistic Facility Project Cost Estimate prior to inclusion in the NASA budget submission to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).

c. Using life-cycle cost vs. first cost to determine the best economic solution (e.g. new construction vs. renovation or adaptive reuse, mechanical and electrical systems, equipment, materials, and methods) (see NASA Business Case Guide for Facilities Projects). Ensure that any large capital energy investment in an existing building employs the most energy efficient and life-cycle cost-effective designs, systems, equipment, and controls.

d. Designing for maintainability to optimize operation and maintenance costs and effort (see CII Best Practices).

e. Commissioning installed equipment, systems, building envelope, and other building elements to ensure quality, operability, reliability, and systems integration.

f. Using environmentally friendly processes, materials, and equipment.

g. Maximizing reuse, recycling, and salvage and minimizing disposal when a project includes demolition (see CII Best Practices).

h. Applying constructability concepts and principles during each phase of the facility project process to ensure the project execution remains practical (see CII Best Practices).

i. Using partnering tools and techniques to establish and maintain professional working relationships among project stakeholders including, but not limited to, users, contractors, and construction managers. See NASA Partnering Desk Reference for more specific guidance.

j. Practicing effective configuration and change order control to minimize project cost and schedule growth.
