Facilities Management Contracts

What information/reference should be written into a contract with regards to H&S responsibilities for both the FM company and the Client?

Reactive Maintenance could perhaps more accurately be described as Corrective Maintenance e.g. a component or a unit breaks down what Corrective Maintenance action needs to be undertaken to restore the function.

You may find BS3811, Terms used in Terotechnology, helpful. The copy I have is dated 1993 so they may well have been some updates.

We are currently in the process of renegotiating our FM contract with a company who has been supplying the service for a number of years - overall to a satisfactory level of performance. Part of their offer is to transfer the budget for, and control of, "reactive Maintenance" to the FM supplier in return for cost savings - that on face value are worthwhile. Obviously a high degree of nervousness exist if we were to do this but in theory this can be mitigated by a clear definition of what "reactive maintenance" is and also by clear and transparent reporting systems.

Is there anywhere a recognised definition of "reactive maintenance" and any experience or operational precedence of this scenario?

Cheers!
