The Facilities Operations component of the Department of General Services is the “Behind the Scenes” strike team providing building maintenance, repair, and contract support services to County of San Diego facilities. This includes performance of preventive maintenance on essential building systems, time critical response to emergency repairs, accomplishment of unscheduled maintenance services, compliance and service quality oversight for contract support, and physical security/guard services at select County facilities. Facilities Operations has responsibility for approximately 7.6 million square feet of County property which includes facility support to the County Sheriff, Courts, District Attorney, Health and Human Services Agency, Registrar of Voters, Tax Assessor, various administrative offices and much more. Facility Operations ensures County residents, as well as County employees, continuously benefit from a safe, healthy, and functional business environment.

The County encompasses an area of over 4,000 square miles and is divided into five (5) regions containing 17 zones for maintenance purposes. The Facilities Operations Deputy Director oversees day-to-day operations and is responsible for a staff of over 200 employees. Each region is managed by a Facility Support Manager (FSM) reporting directly to the Deputy Director. Each Zone consists of a Building Maintenance Supervisor (BMS) that reports to their regional FSM. Each BMS directs a crew of Facilities Operations professionals consisting of Building Maintenance Engineers (BME), Carpenters, HVAC Technicians, Electricians, Electronic Security Technicians, Welders, Painters, Masons, and Plumbers, as well as overseeing contract vendors that support their operations.
