Public education in the United States has changed remarkably in the last 200 years. The buildings that house students and teachers have also gone through a dramatic evolution in that same time. The buildings in use today are far more complex in design and thus require considerable expertise to operate and maintain. Although a good deal of scholarly literature has addressed the growing demand for dedicated facilities management, very little of that research is focused on that need within public education systems or the individuals who fulfill the duties associated with that need. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the perceptions of facilities directors of public school systems. A qualitative collective case study was conducted to evaluate the perceptions of six facilities directors from public school systems in Tennessee. Analysis of transcriptions from in-depth interviews as well as document review helped identify factors those individuals perceived as facilitators or barriers to performing their duties. Findings indicated participants perceive communication, autonomy, employees, and access to resources as facilitators of their success. Participants identified communication, purchasing, funding, the age of facilities, and lack of understanding as the primary barriers to their success. This research adds to the literature related to the topic, has implications for future research and practice, and could serve as a model for research among other support service areas of public education.

Orientador: Lesley Carina do Lago Attadia Galli / Resumo: Este estudo teve por objetivo evidenciar a relevância da utilização do Facilities Management (FM) enquanto elemento estratégico na gestão da organização do setor sucroenergético. Foi fundamentado no referencial teórico que trouxe como abordagem conceitos e teorias do FM, práticas de FM em diferentes setores do mercado e sistema de medição de desempenho. Desenvolvido no escopo de pesquisa descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa, utilizou procedimentos de análise de dados e estudo de caso. A empresa em análise é a líder mundial no setor sucroenergético, composta por 26 unidades de produção canavieira. A investigação ocorreu através de análise do banco de dados do sistema de gestão de FM e entrevista com gestores da organização. Consistiu na análise dos métodos de gestão de medição de desempenho de FM aplicáveis na área de apoio administrativo direcionado a gestão das unidades de produção, a partir de métricas e indicadores estratégicos de desempenho relacionados a área. A partir da análise dos dados coletados durante a pesquisa de campo, constatou-se que a utilização do FM no processo podem gerar redução de custos, qualidade na gestão dos processos e melhorias nos indicadores da perspectiva interna do negócio. / Abstract: This study aimed to highlight the relevance of using Facilities Management (FM) as a strategic element in the management of the organization of the sugar-energy sector. It was based on the theoretical framework that approached FM concepts and theories, FM practices in different market sectors and performance measurement system. Developed in the scope of descriptive research, with qualitative approach, used data analysis procedures and case study. The unit of analysis was the world’s leading organization in the sugarenergy sector, consisting of 26 sugarcane production units. The research consisted of the analysis of FM performance measurement management methods applicable in the area of administrative support directed to the management of production units, based on metrics and strategic performance indicators related to the area. From the analysis of the data collected during the field research, it was found that the use of FM in the process could lead to cost reduction, quality in the process management and improvements in the indicators of the internal business perspective. / Mestre
