Ventilation Management Plan (VMP) Deployment: Leveraging ASHE/ASHRAE Guideline 43 to Prioritize Strategic Infrastructure Investment | Webinar

Health care infrastructure is aging rapidly, with the average age of plant now exceeding 13 years after decades of underinvestment. While hospitals face rising operational, regulatory and environmental pressures, new opportunities are emerging to redefine the ROI of infrastructure investment. ASHE and ASHRAE’s Guideline 43 enables facility leaders to link ventilation management, asset performance and operational flexibility directly to financial outcomes and patient care. By aligning innovation with capital strategy, organizations can elevate infrastructure from a cost center to a business value driver.

Learning Objectives

• Define ASHE/ASHRAE Guideline 43 and explain how its comprehensive approach to ventilation management establishes a new framework for operating and evaluating HVAC infrastructure within health care facilities.
• Understand how deferred maintenance can impact clinical and financial outcomes, enabling leaders to redefine ROI by linking HVAC and facility investment decisions to measurable operational and economic impacts.
• Identify how ventilation and infrastructure management can strengthen patient care outcomes, demonstrating the connection between optimized HVAC performance, environmental quality, and safe, reliable clinical environments.
• Recognize how Strategic Asset Management (SAM) and HVAC risk/criticality metrics enable facility leaders to re-engage executive stakeholders, elevating infrastructure from a capital expense to a strategic business asset that supports long-term organizational performance.
