The premises audit — facilities management structures

Abstract

The commissioning of a premises audit normally arises in one of two ways — upper management imposition or facilities management decision. Upper management's motives may be mere curiosity or darkest suspicion or they may just feel the need for a premises audit to support their premises policy (if any). Whatever the motive, they will certainly be expecting the management of the facilities function to be scrutinised by the premises auditor for cost effectiveness and efficiency alongside the other cost centres of the premises budget.
