What this strand covers

Maintenance supervisionSupervision of maintenance and building works

Making sure maintenance or repair work is carried out properly: technically, administratively and on paper. Covers quality checks, contractor control, compliance with standards and programme follow-up.

Maintenance planningPlanning and control of preventive and corrective maintenance

Maintenance programmes that keep buildings and installations running. Includes scheduling, a record of every intervention, resource management and technical control, to get more life out of the asset.

Defect diagnosisForensic inspection and diagnosis of building defects and pathology

Specialist inspection to identify and analyse structural damage, cracking, water ingress or deterioration, and to define how to repair it. Uses forensic diagnostic methods to establish causes, risks and repairs that hold. Structural integrity is signed off by a civil engineer, the professional the law reserves that signature for.

Emergency recoveryEmergency response and post-event recovery for buildings

Technical coordination after fire, earthquake, flooding or partial collapse. Includes assessment of the damage, structural evaluation and an action plan to get the building safely back into use. The structural evaluation is signed off by a civil engineer.

Predictive maintenancePredictive maintenance and technical asset management

Maintenance programmes based on actual condition and performance data. Uses inspection, monitoring and control of critical variables to get ahead of failures and keep operating costs down.

Digital asset managementDigital maintenance management and asset control

Digital platforms for recording, tracing and following up maintenance. Performance indicators, intervention history and predictive alerts, so technical and administrative decisions rest on something.

Building servicesMaintenance of plumbing, electrical and sanitary installations

Preventive and corrective maintenance routines on technical services and networks. Includes functional testing, fault correction and certification of compliance under the RETIE, RAS and NTC standards that apply in Colombia.

Facade maintenanceFacade maintenance and restoration
