M & E Maintenance
Building services play an important role in buildings where M&E services are the only active components in an otherwise passive shelter. When a building is put into use, its building services have to perform day in, day out for the life of a building. Without effective and efficient M&E services, a building would not function properly. The building services industry is becoming more aware of the seriousness of maintenance and the consequences of ignoring it, both because of the high cost involved and the implications of failure of service.

Effective building services maintenance management can ensure that operating and maintenance costs are minimized, that the building services continue to operate efficiently, and that the economic life of the building is optimized. In addition, good maintenance will ensure there are no breaches of legal and statutory obligations regarding health and safety. Though very important, many of the traditional ways of managing services maintenance and practices are often neither cost effective nor optimum, and therefore most clients are still not satisfied.
