Facility Partners may be any subcomponent of a federal agency, including but not limited to bureaus, administrations, departments, offices, facilities, laboratories, divisions, field or regional offices. Facility Partners progress through a series of simple steps to participate in the FEC. These steps are also available in a flowchart format (PDF, 130 KB).
- Register as a Facility Partner.
- Within six weeks of registering, identify your baseline by completing the Baseline Survey of Current Practices.
- Design, implement and refine your electronics management program.
- Report Annual Progress.
- Apply for an Award at one of three recognition levels: Gold, Silver or Bronze.
The FEC encourages continual improvement by asking Facility Partners to complete steps 3 and 4 each year. Applying for an annual award (step 5) is optional, but highly encouraged.
