# Operations and Facilities

> Coordinate rooms, resources, Sunday execution, safety, access, transport, and emergency readiness.

Operations & Facilities gives church teams one place to prepare the building,
run services, resolve issues, and coordinate a safe response. Members can make
eligible requests in the mobile app, while staff use permission-controlled
sections in the web dashboard.

<Warning>
  TheFaithApp records church coordination. It does not replace trained safety
  leaders, local emergency services, safeguarding policy, building inspection,
  driver licensing, insurance, or legal compliance.
</Warning>

## Before You Start

1. Name the people responsible for facilities, service operations, safety, and
   restricted access.
2. Give each person only the Operations viewing, management, safety, or
   sensitive access their role needs.
3. Confirm your emergency contact tree, assembly areas, evacuation steps, and
   local emergency procedures outside the app.
4. Gather the current room capacities, equipment quantities, key holders,
   inspection dates, approved drivers, and contractor requirements.
5. Create one test service and rehearse a booking conflict, checklist, alert,
   runbook, incident, weather decision, and role call before rollout.

## Add Rooms, Equipment, and Supplies

Open `Operations & Facilities > Resources & stock`, then add each room,
equipment pool, serialized asset, vehicle, building system, safety item, or
consumable.

Record the location, capacity or quantity, booking and approval rules, stock
and reorder point, asset tag, and next lifecycle or inspection date. Use
serialized tracking for a key, credential, vehicle, or item that can have only
one current holder.

Low stock and overdue lifecycle items appear on the Overview. These are review
signals; the app does not silently revoke access or certify an inspection.

## Review Facility and Equipment Requests

The Calendar shows pending and approved reservations. A room or serialized
item cannot have overlapping approved bookings, while pooled equipment checks
the remaining quantity.

Members can use the mobile **Operations & Facilities** hub to request an
available room or resource, add setup notes, and record climate or lighting
intent. They can also send maintenance, setup, cleaning, access, stock, or
lost-and-found requests and follow the status of their own request.

Approve or decline a booking only after reviewing its time, occupancy,
resource warning, and setup needs. Restricted access detail belongs in the
sensitive workflow rather than an ordinary alert.

When reserving a room or equipment specifically for a service, select its
related service operations plan. The reservation then participates in that
service's readiness checks before publication.

## Prepare Sunday Operations

Open `Services & checklists` and create the service operations plan. Link the
existing Volunteer service plan when one exists, then add:

* The timed run sheet and owners
* Usher, greeter, parking, production, and safety stations
* Parking map reference and zones
* Required rooms or equipment
* Communion portions, cups, dietary alternatives, and reset work
* Baptism count, warm-baptistry confirmation, and towels

Add production, opening, cleaning, setup, sacrament, inspection, or closing
checklists and assign the work. Publication remains blocked while required
resources, volunteer coverage, or lyric-projection permission needs review.

## Publish QR Runbooks and Reconcile CCLI Use

Use `Runbooks & CCLI` to publish a public-safe procedure for equipment or a
building system. Include clear steps and a visible instruction for when to
stop and contact a trained person. Place the generated QR link only where the
procedure is intended to be used.

The public page never displays restricted staff notes, contact trees, key
holders, or operator identity. Rotate the link if it is shared more widely
than intended.

For critical systems, record at least two trained operators where possible.
Review lyric-projection permission before publishing a service, then generate
the date-bounded CCLI usage reconciliation when needed.

## Coordinate Safety and Weather Decisions

Use `Safety & emergency` to publish each emergency plan with its contact tree,
assigned roles, evacuation checklist, assembly guidance, and next drill date.

Service alerts use public-safe instructions and allow acknowledgement and
resolution. Incident reports may contain protected detail and require the
appropriate safety or sensitive access. For immediate danger, follow local
emergency procedures before recording the incident.

A weather decision records the named criteria, observed conditions, decision,
affected church audiences, and explicitly confirmed outside contacts. Review
the scope before cascading it; a sent decision cannot silently expand to a
new audience.

Assigned safety coordinators can start volunteer role call from the mobile
hub. A role call cannot close until everyone in its scope is accounted for.
Children remain in the protected Children & Youth emergency roster.

## Manage Access, Vehicles, and Vendors

The sensitive `Access & transport` section records one current holder for a
key or serialized asset, its due date, and its return. The offboarding view
helps locate open custody and critical-system knowledge before a volunteer
leaves.

Review a driver's licence, insurance, training expiry, and approved vehicle
class before approving a trip. A trip also checks vehicle capacity and time
conflicts. Passenger manifests are protected and should contain only the
information needed for that trip.

Vendor visits record the sponsor, purpose, access window, insurance or
compliance expiry, issued credential label, check-in, and check-out. Record an
asset return or vendor departure promptly so the current access view remains
accurate.
