Deco’s Facilities Management Process
Initial Assessment
Planning
Building Systems Management
Deco conducts an initial assessment of the facility to identify its current condition, operational systems, and potential issues. This includes reviewing existing documents, conducting site visits, and interviewing facility personnel.
We develop a comprehensive facilities plan that outlines the goals, objectives, and strategies for managing the facility. The plan includes a detailed scope of work, timelines, and budgets for maintenance, repairs, and capital projects.
We monitor and control building systems, including HVAC, lighting, and plumbing systems to ensure they operate within optimal parameters to minimise energy consumption and extend equipment lifespan.
Coordinating Vendor Services
Monitoring and Reporting
Project Management
At Deco, we identify and manage relationships with vendors providing services such as maintenance, repairs, and installations. We also monitor and report on vendor performance to ensure compliance with standards.
We monitor the facility's performance and report on key metrics such as energy consumption, maintenance costs, and downtime. This includes providing regular reports to clients and making recommendations for improvement.
