Business-Focused Maintenance - A Practical Introduction

Overview

Business-focused maintenance provides the built environment industry with a methodology for utilising maintenance budgets more effectively. Assets critical to the business are maintained, while other less critical assets are managed as well as possible within the available budget.

This course is based on the BSRIA Guide Business-Focused Maintenance (BG 53/2016).

"I didn't know what to expect from the course having achieved a good level of SFG and maintenance strategy through work experience. BFM is new to me and is something clients are starting to enquire about and include in specifications. The course was very informative and has certainly given me food for thought on how to approach introducing a BFM strategy to a client" - Robert Jenkins, Arup
