Book excerpt: The Capitol Power Plant (CPP), managed by the Architect of the Capitol (AOC), provides heating & cooling for the U.S. Capitol & other facilities. For more than a decade, potential overstaffing at CPP has been a principal concern. A recent report noted that although AOC has long recognized that CPP is overstaffed, staffing reductions had not been implemented, & that AOC had only recently made plans to establish a new staffing structure. There is now an exam¿n. of the feasibility of AOC¿s entering into a contract with a private entity for the mgmt. & oper. of the CPP. This report discusses: the actions taken to reduce oper. costs & increase efficiencies; & the challenges that AOC must address before it can make future sourcing decisions about CPP oper.
