Building & Facilities Maintenance Management Training Course

The Building & Facilities Maintenance Management Training Course equips facilities managers, maintenance engineers, and supervisors with the knowledge and practical tools needed to plan, organize, and control the maintenance of buildings and their technical systems so that they remain safe, compliant, reliable, energy-efficient, and fit for their occupants. Government buildings, hospitals, universities and schools, airports, commercial towers, shopping malls, hotels, and residential and mixed-use complexes depend on complex building systems, including HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire and life safety, lifts, and building management systems. Reactive maintenance, weak compliance with statutory inspections, poor asset information, and unmanaged contractors lead to breakdowns, safety risks, occupant complaints, high energy use, and premature asset deterioration. The course covers building maintenance management from asset knowledge to performance improvement. Participants learn building fabric and building services systems, maintenance strategies including planned preventive, corrective, condition-based, and statutory maintenance, and how to build asset registers, conduct condition surveys, and develop planned maintenance programs using recognized maintenance task libraries. The program then addresses help desk and work order management, computer-aided facilities and maintenance management systems, service level agreements and KPIs, statutory and life safety compliance, including fire systems, lifts, electrical systems, pressure systems, and water hygiene and Legionella control, and health and safety in maintenance work. Participants also examine energy management in buildings, maintenance contracting models and contractor management, maintenance budgeting and life cycle replacement planning, occupant satisfaction, handover from construction to operation, green building and sustainability requirements, and digital technologies such as smart building sensors, building information modelling for facilities management, and predictive maintenance. The course is delivered through case studies of building maintenance programs, condition survey and planning exercises, KPI and budget analysis, and improvement planning workshops. Participants leave with a building asset register and condition survey template, a planned maintenance program template, a statutory compliance calendar, a service level agreement and KPI framework, and a life cycle replacement and maintenance budget template.
