Program Overview
No building is free from defects even newly constructed ones. Left unattended, these issues can escalate into major risks, costly repairs, and operational disruptions. This training equips participants with practical tools and proven methodologies to systematically identify, assess, and manage building defects through structured inspections and audits.
The program also introduces the Annual Operational Audit (AOA) framework as a proactive approach to maintenance excellence. Participants will learn how to implement Gap Closure Plans to address both corrective actions and preventive measures, ensuring long-term reliability and performance of building assets.
