Facility Management - Part 2: Guidance on how to prepare Facility Management agreements

This European standard provides guidance on the preparation of agreements for Facility Management work.
This European standard is applicable to:
   Facility Management agreements for both public and private European Union cross-border, as well as domestic, client/Facility Management service provider relationships;
   full range of facility services;
   both types of Facility Management service providers (internal and external);
   all types of working environments (e.g. industrial, commercial, administration, military, health etc.).
This European standard is applicable to services that are primarily characterised by the following properties:
   business to business services;
   managed by the Facility Management service provider;
   recurring type operations greater than a one year duration;
   performance oriented;
   prices or mechanisms to determine prices for services, which are closely linked to performance.
In EN 15221-1 the scope of Facility Management is described.
This standard is primarily written for Facility Management agreements between a client and an external Facility Management service provider. However, a large part of this standard can be applied to cases where the Facility management service provider is an internal entity within the client's organisation and be very helpful to set up an approach based on Services Level Agreements (SLA).
This standard does not replace any specialized standards related to services within the scope of the Facility Management agreement. Applicable standards should be followed.
The standard does not:
   provide standard forms for Facility Management agreements;
   determine rights and obligations between the client and the Facility Management service provider;
   detail employment conditions in regard to Facility Management agreements, although such details are extremely important;
give detail concerning the management of environmental issues.

Ein großer Teil dieser Norm kann auch auf Fälle angewendet werden, in denen der Facility Management- Auftragnehmer eine interne Einheit innerhalb der Organisation des Auftraggebers ist und sehr hilfreich sein, einen auf Leistungsvereinbarungen (SLA) beruhenden Ansatz zu entwickeln.
Diese Norm ersetzt keine spezialisierten Normen, die sich auf Leistungen innerhalb des Geltungsbereiches der Facility Management-Vereinbarung beziehen. Anwendbare Normen sollten befolgt werden.

This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2007, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by April 2007. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard : Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

4 Introduction Effective Facility Management brings value to an organisation and all associated stakeholders.
The objective of this European Standard is to provide guidance for preparing an effective Facility Management agreement. Such an agreement by nature, defines the relationship between an organisation that procures facility services (client) and an organisation that provides these services (Facility Management service provider).
Although Facility Management can vary from a combination of single facility services e.g. 'security' and 'cleaning' to fully integrated facility services and/or a functional approach to an organisation e.g. 'workplace' or 'mobility', this European standard is primarily written for organisations that adopt integrated facility services and/or a functional approach. In addition, as technical developments increase and economic systems mature, the demand for this type of facility services, both nationally and internationally, will increase.
It is therefore important that Facility Management agreements are approached in a structured and careful manner. The purpose of this standard is to: – Promote cross-border client/Facility Management service provider relationships within the European Union and to produce a clear interface between the client and the Facility Management service provider. – Improve the quality of Facility Management agreements so that disputes and adjustments are minimised. – Assist in the selection and scope of facility services and to identify options for their provision. – Give assistance in, and advice on, the drafting and negotiation of Facility Management agreements and specify arrangements in case of dispute. – Identify types of Facility Management agreements and make recommendations for the attribution of rights and obligations between the parties of the agreement. – Simplify comparisons between Facility Management agreements. This document is a working and standardised tool intended for parties who wish to draw up the Facility Management agreement within the European Common Market. It offers headings, which are not exhaustive. Parties may or may not include, exclude, modify and adapt these headings to their own agreements. EN 15221-1 is a lead document in terms of standards in Facility Management as it gives relevant terms and definitions in the area of Facility Management and also provides insight into the scope of Facility Management. This standard is a guidance document and does not oblige the parties to use any part of its content. Not all the clauses discussed in this standard will be applicable to every Facility Management agreement. The Facility Management agreement shall follow the European, national and local legal and fiscal rules and should consider social issues where the agreement will apply. Each individual agreement should be drafted, and negotiated where appropriate, to take into account the requirements of the parties involved.
