Per MCA 2-17-811 , "A State agency may not alter, improve, repair, or remodel a state building in the state capitol area without the approval of the department." CFM provides construction services and improvements in state-owned spaces. As stated in MCA 18-2-102 ; projects may not exceed $150,000 without legislative approval and are subject to state procurement requirements and thresholds. Agencies may request an estimate for a building improvement or modifications by calling (406) 444-3060 or email gsdservicedesk@mt.gov. A project manager will review your project with you and provide a cost estimate.
The use of space heaters is strongly discouraged. These units can pose a safety hazard when left unattended. CFM will ask employees to remove space heaters if a unit is deemed a safety hazard. Repeated work orders to fix tripped breakers due to portable heaters may result in a charge to an agency.

The waste lines in the buildings were not designed to handle refuse, such as garbage, food, coffee grounds, grease, and large quantities of toilet paper, paper towels, feminine napkins, and foreign material. These items can clog the drains and result in damage to the building. If you encounter a plumbing fixture that does not appear to be operating as it should (slow drain, clogged toilet, inoperable flush) please notify General Services at (406) 444-3060 or email gsdservicedesk@mt.gov.
