another facility for reuse) and some specialty items are
OMARfunded. They will also be included in the design, to be
furnished and installed by the construction contractor. Finally,
furnishings and some specialty equipment are OMAR-funded, and
will be included for information only in the design documents, but
will typically be furnished by the Using Service under a separate
contract. The Design Agency will prepare a separate package for
furniture acquisition.
1.10.2 The Full Facility Revitalization (FFR), Minor Maintenance
and Repair (MMR), and other programs are also OMAR-funded.
These programs generally use simplified design methods to design
and construct projects within annual OMAR funding cycles; utilize
the Design Guide and the standards embodied in MDS as the
starting point for project designs.
1.10.2.1 In the FFR program, all building components in the
affected buildings, and the utility infrastructure, are evaluated for
remaining useful life, and for compliance with current building and
life safety codes. Systems and components that are at or near
failure, or in erious need of modernization, are replaced with current
products approved by the Using Service.
1.10.2.2 FFR projects are further evaluated against Plant
Replacement Value (PRV), as defined by Army Regulation (AR)
420-0, and cannot exceed 50% of PRV without specific approval
of the appropriate Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army.
1.10.2.3 The majority of FFR projects consist of maintenance and
repair (M&R), or health/life safety work. These projects are funded
from different subsets of the OMAR "K" account.
1.10.2.4 FFR projects may include some incidental new Minor
Construction work in order to provide complete and usable USAR
facilities. This work is funded from the OMAR "L" account; the
current limits on the allowable construction cost must be verified
and not exceeded.
1.10.2.5 Cost estimates for FFR projects must differentiate the
amounts to be funded from different OMAR accounts, as directed
by the Using Service.
1.10.3 Real Property Exchange projects involve the exchange of
Army Reserve property and/or facilities for property or facilities
owned or builtto- suit by other Governmental units or the private
sector. The entity with which the AR makes such an exchange is the
"exchange partner." The exchange partner typically provides the
