Maintenance is important to our built environment primarily because of the need to preserve a facility in its original state and hence retain an acceptable standard. There is an appreciation that a stock of land and buildings is a capital asset in its own right and that maintenance is required to preserve the value of that asset.
The prime aim of maintenance is to preserve a faciliy in its initial state, as far as practicable, so that it effectively serves its purpose. Maintenance applies to all work to a completed building and will include; cleaning and redecoration, repairs and replacements, alterations extensions and adaptations, refurbishment and rehabili- tation.
At Statecare we understand that maintenance needs to allocate the needed resources and tools for organizing and planning maintenance work, as well as for dealing with maintenance emergencies.
Asset management is at the core of maintenance of built environment. It is a strategic and analytical approach to the management of the property throughout its three distinct life cycle stages:
Identifying the need for a particular item, planning, purchasing, and commissioning it.
This period marks the useful life of the asset. The asset is used to generate value and needs to be
routinely looked after to avoid breakdowns which can reduce its lifespan.
Maintenance costs gradually build up till it becomes uneconomical to keep the asset running.
In recent years there has been a growing awareness of the social and economic importance of maintenance of built environ- ment.
