This new edition of an informative and accessible book guides
building surveyors and facilities managers through the key aspects
of property maintenance and continues to be of value to both
students and practitioners.
With the increasing cost of new-build, effective maintenance of
existing building stock is becoming ever more important and
building maintenance work now represents nearly half of total
construction output in the UK.
Building Maintenance Management provides a comprehensive
profile of the many aspects of property maintenance. This second
edition has been updated throughout, with sections on outsourcing;
maintenance planning; benchmarking and KPIs; and current trends in
procurement routes (including partnering and the growth of PFI)
integrated into the text. There is also a new chapter on the
changing context within which maintenance is carried out, largely
concerned with its relationship to facilities management. More
coverage is given of maintenance organisations and there are major
updates to relevant aspects of health and safety and to contract
forms.
