Facilities Performance Indicators (FPI)

APPA’s Facilities Performance Indicators (FPI) program provides a rich dataset for institutions to benchmark their facilities data, performance, and spending across their peers. APPA has been collecting data via the FPI program for decades, making it a valuable resource for our members.

Each year, APPA members submit data to compare their latest data with recent data from others. Once data is collected for a given year, participants are provided with detailed benchmarking information.

Annual FPI Benchmarking Process

The annual FPI data collection and reporting process is:

• Data collected from participating educational facilities (July-October for the prior fiscal year)
• Data reviewed by APPA staff and outliers identified (November)
• Participants contacted regarding outliers to either correct data or note circumstances surrounding values (December-January)
• Full report available (February/March)

Who Can Access the FPI Reports

Full FPI data for a given year is provided to all APPA member, participating organizations. An anonymized version of each annual FPI report is available for purchase. Non-participating APPA members receive a discount on FPI reports. For questions regarding purchasing FPI benchmarking data, please contact [email protected]

Fiscal Year 23/24 FPI Data and Report

Due to a transition in process, the FY23/24 FPI report will be published in June 2025. This report will include the full FPI analysis (similar to years prior to COVID). Once the report is published, it will be available for purchase by non-participating organizations and business partners.

Fiscal Year 24/25 FPI Data Process

The data collection period for fiscal year 24/25 will begin in July 2025. Survey participants will be given access to APPA’s FPI survey collection website/tool. Look for communications from the APPA team in July as we begin the data collection process.
