Application of the standard helps develop functional and motivating work environments, maintain regulatory compliance and provide safe workplaces. Moreover, it supports the organisations with optimization of life cycle performance and costs, improvement of resilience and relevance, and organizational identity. The standard serves as a framework for companies to demonstrate a clear and uniform approach for the design, implementation, maintenance and operation of a facility management system. [1], [2]
