Projects and Initiatives
- Complete implementation of information technology infrastructure systems and services.
- Complete migration of systems from the Data Center in the Board's Martin Building to the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond's Baltimore Branch.
Objective 3.2: Address critical Data Center subsystem requirements.
In this Section:
Staff will work to obtain and put in place critical Data Center subsystems.
Projects and Initiatives
- Continue the iterative space, power, and cooling analysis process for the Data Center in the Baltimore facility.
- Perform a review of best practice measurements of data center capacity planning.
Objective 3.3: Create a safe and secure work environment.
In this Section:
Law enforcement staff continues to ensure that employees and visitors are adequately screened and safe while occupying a Board building. Protective measures and continuity of operations plans will be updated, where appropriate.
Projects and Initiatives

Objective 3.4: Upgrade physical infrastructure.
In this Section:
Substantial completion of construction for the Board's offices on floors in the 1801 K Street Building occurred in 2014, with office moves scheduled for the beginning of 2015. Construction will continue on the below-grade level of the 1801 K Street Building with substantial completion of construction expected in 2015.

A condition assessment of the Eccles Building was completed in 2014, analyzing the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and architectural aspects of the building to identify possible efficiencies. In 2015, on-going assessments will ensure that existing Board facilities are operating in the same efficient manner as the Martin Building, once renovations are completed.
Projects and Initiatives
- Review and report on energy consumption at Board-owned buildings.
- Implement enhancements to save energy based on utility consumption versus benchmark data.
