Home / Management Experience
At the onset of every new CONRAC management service, FFM prepares and organizes a qualified team to ensure the success of the new CONRAC facility. FFM assigns an experienced site manager trained in all operations at an existing facility who gives full attention to managing and operating the new CONRAC. As an experienced manager with a working knowledge of the equipment and systems installed, FFM’s site manager will be able to immediately assess the facility’s operational requirements.
During the pre-operation phase or Start Up, FFM will provide trained personnel from one of our other facility operations to act as a Start Up Team and work through the initial milestones. By dedicating the necessary management and personnel resources, FFM’s Start Up Team will lay the groundwork for a smooth, cost effective start to operations. Team members will develop a detailed budget and scope of services for all preventive maintenance, repairs, emergency repairs, and service contracts and negotiations. This same Start Up Team has experience in the successful setup, registration, programming, and commissioning of fuel systems, wash bays, building equipment, and other ancillary systems associated with rental car facilities at two of the largest CONRACs in the country.
FFM’s Management Team is accustomed to working in all areas of CONRAC operations, which allows us to transition from construction to operation to maintenance, including assisting the contractor for the specific needs of the RACs while making sure that all facility obligations are met. Important for transition purposes, FFM is experienced, task–oriented, and proficient in staffing, office set up, establishing network communications, completing registration, insurance, setting up and troubleshooting equipment, and all other requirements necessary for a successful startup of operations.
