Solving the O&M equation

An effective and successful O&M (operation and maintenance) program for schools begins at the very start of the project and not at its facility completion : key design issues must be covered during planning and design phases. The owner must be identified and listened to, the understanding of how the O&M staff works, what its capabilities and technology skill level are, will help in designing the right facility within the capability of available resources.
The O&M documentation must be used during the training sessions and those sessions must be recorded electronically.
O&M plays a significant role in achieving and maintaining a good indoor environment.
