This document provides a broad societal context for facility management (FM) to inspire organizations that wish to:
—     establish and improve a sustainable integrated FM system;
—     embrace the wide-ranging and positive contribution that FM makes in managing the built environment;
—     support the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This document provides a non-exhaustive contextual introduction to relevant concepts, initiatives and terms that are in common use.
It is acknowledged that the practice of FM internationally is dynamic and diverse, hence this document provides generic information based on current experience without setting out any specific requirements, recommendations or permissions. Organizations are encouraged to make their own enquiries as to the extent this document is applicable to their circumstances.

This document gives guidance on the ways in which a facility management (FM) organization can influence organizational behaviours to achieve improved facility outcomes, including how it can engage, empower and influence users, service providers and other interested parties with one another for improved outcomes and user experience while interfacing with the built environment.
Consequently, and simultaneously, these behaviours can be harnessed to contribute to the achievement of the demand organization’s objectives and goals in an organizational sense, regardless of the type of organization or built environment involved. This is the fundamental link to the role of FM as defined in ISO 41001.
This document is intended to build upon the requirements in ISO 41001, which adheres to the Plan-Do-Check-Act methodology.
This document is applicable to organizations both large and small.
NOTE 1        For the purposes of this document, the term “organization” refers to the FM organization unless otherwise stated.
NOTE 2        The terms “facility management” and “facilities management” can be used interchangeably.

This European Standard provides a guideline how to measure, achieve and improve quality in FM. It gives complementary guidelines to EN ISO 9000, EN ISO 9001 and EN 15221-2 within the framework of EN 15221 1. The standard provides a link into management methods and management theories.
This European Standard is applicable to:
-   FM in public and private organizations;
-   client organization and service provider relationships;
-   full range of facility products or facility services;
-   both types of service providers in FM (internal and external);
-   all types of working environments (e.g. industrial, commercial, administration, military, healthcare etc.).
This European Standard is applicable to business services (not consumer oriented).
This European Standard does not:
-   replace the quality management systems of the client organization;
-   provide standard forms:
-   for performance and quality management systems (delivering a quality management system);
-   for defining requirements;
-   for a measurement tool;
-   for service level;
-   apply to the certification of the quality system of Facility Management (covered by EN ISO 9001).

FM covers and integrates a very broad scope of processes, products / services, activities and facilities. The approach of this standard is to consider the added value provided to the primary activities by adopting a product perspective as recognised by the primary processes or core business in the organisation. This standard therefore introduces the concept of standardised (classified) facility products.
The scope of this standard is to provide taxonomy for FM which includes:
-   relevant interrelationship of elements and their structures in FM;
-   definitions of terms and contents to standardise facility products which provide a basis for cross border trade, data management, cost allocation and benchmarking;
-   a high level classification and hierarchical coding structure for the standardised facility products;
-   expanding the basic FM model given in EN 15221-1 by adding a time scale in the form of the quality cycle called PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act);
-   a linkage to existing cost and facilities structures;
-   alignment with the primary activities requirements.
Additional benefits from this standard are:
-   Introducing a client rather than a specifically asset oriented view;
-   harmonisation of different existing national structures (e.g. building cost codes) on an upper level relevant for the organisation and its primary activities.

This European standard provides guidance on the preparation of agreements for Facility Management work.
The European standard can be applied to:
-   Both public and private European Common Market cross-border, as well as domestic, client/Facility management agreements or relationships.
-   The whole range of facility services including planning, management, management and service, service and subcontract or operations.
-   Full range of activities associated with any type of working environment (e.g. industrial, commercial, administration, military, health etc.).
This European standard is applicable to services, if they are primarily characterized by the following properties:
-   business to business services;
-   managed by the Facility management service provider;
-   recurrent type of operations;
-   performance oriented;
-   prices or mechanisms to determine prices for services which are closely linked to performance.
In prEN 15222 the main examples of services concerned are listed.
The 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.
The standard does not:
-   Go into detail concerning the management of environmental issues;
-   Provide standard forms for Facility Management agreements;
-    Determine rights and obligations between client and Facility Management service provider;
-   Detail employment conditions in regard to Facility Management agreements, although such details are extremely important.
