| Abstract/Contents: | Explains the process of determining equipment needs for a facility built for the Colorado Rapids Major League Soccer team in Commerce City, Colorado. Discusses FF&E (furniture, fixtures and equipment) lists, suggesting that "in any organization's budgeting process, it's best to submit...requests as early as possible." States that "equipment lists were based on the highest use scenario" and that "the ability to mow every field every morning is essential." Describes the process of determining equipment needs in relation to mowing, painting, aerating, and core removal, stating that "the equipment was purchased rather than leased for the facility." |
