How often must the AWP custodian generate the DIFM report?

• A. Once per shift
• B. Three times per day
• C. Weekly
• D. Twice a day (end of every shift)

Answer: (D)

Regular DIFM reporting keeps track of items due in from maintenance and ensures the current status is known for the unit. The custodian should generate the DIFM report at the end of each shift, which means twice per day if there are two shifts. This timing aligns with shift turnover, ensuring the incoming shift starts with up-to-date information and maintains accountability. Generating it only once per day would leave a gap for the second shift; weekly would be far too infrequent; three times per day isn't necessary for a two-shift cycle. Therefore, the end-of-every-shift cadence is the correct practice.
