Planned Preventative Maintenance
Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM)
Whether you own or manage a commercial building unplanned expenditure for urgent reactive maintenance is never convenient.
Maintenance of buildings broadly falls in to two categories, reactive and proactive. As much as 75% of maintenance budgets can be spent on reactive maintenance. A solution to avoiding significant day to day expenditure and minimising deterioration or your building or portfolio is to be proactive.
A well-designed planned preventative maintenance plan will identify those areas requiring regular maintenance and those areas needing urgent attention. This allows landlords to align their budgets with their overall property strategy and providing time to accumulate the necessary funds.
What Are The benefits Of A PPM?
Having a PPM carried out by one of our experienced Surveyors allows the owner or management company to:
- A long-term meta view of your building or portfolio highlighting urgent works from those requiring cyclical attention
- Supports strategic decision making for disposal versus investment of your building
- Allow time to plan work around occupiers to minimise business interruption
A PPM will cover all external and internal structural elemnets, finishes, statutory consents including communal areas. the grounds or your building portfolio are also included from ard/soft landscaping to boundaries.
At NTR we will carry out a detailed survey of you building or portfolio to establish the current condition or the structure, communal areas, and the grounds. Using our experience we will produce a working document that includes a costed schedule for works based on a cyclical timeframe.
A Planned Preventative Maintenance Plan can assist the owner or management company by:
- Allowing you to carry out more accurate budget forecasting
- Helps secure the value and condition of your building or portfolio long-term
- Supports continued compliance with statutory obligations
- Limits deterioration of your building or portfolio
