Composition The Committee comprises 2 volunteers and 8 staff members with competencies in Building Construction, Civil Engineering, Quantity Surveying, Operations and Facilities Management. The diversity of their knowledge, skills and experience allows for useful exchange of ideas and views to support the BFC objectives. MINDS facilities are maintained in good condition and regularly upgraded to meet new demands and operational efficiency. MILESTONES AND ACHIEVEMENTS The committee held five meetings during the financial year. During the period, the Committee embarked on cyclical maintenance projects for Ang Mo Kio Training & Development Centre (ATDC) and Clementi Training & Development Centre (CTDC). Cyclical maintenance is carried out at pre-determined intervals to repair, refurbish and renew equipment and facilities necessitated from wear and tear, breakdown, obsolescence and expiry of their useful life. The multi-purpose hall flooring at Towner Gardens School (TGS) was upgraded and re-floored with Eco-Green Eco-Art Design Technology Engineering Single Plank Flooring. This product is in the Green Building Product Listing certified by Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC). Numerous minor improvement works were carried out to re-configure the respective centres, providing more space to the users, enhancing the centres further and giving a fresher look. Periodic structural inspections as required by BCA were carried out by certified Professional Engineers (PE) at Lee Kong Chiang Gardens School (LGS) and SIA-MINDS Employment Development Centre (SMEDC). At MINDSville@Napiri, Fire Certificate Inspection was conducted in September 2010. SCDF inspected the whole building and have renewed the Fire Safety Fitness Certificate.
