Operation and maintenance audit
Asset Management and Maintenance Audits was written by Ralph Bell and Jo Harris and published by BSRIA in July 2012. It defines an operation and maintenance audit as: ‘…a systematic examination, undertaken by those who have a knowledge and understanding of the operation and maintenance of buildings, to assess the effectiveness of the asset management. The main purposes of the audit are to highlight deviations from plans or expectations, to evaluate the need for improvement and to take corrective action.’
