Facilities Management
Certification that follows the engineer to the client site
For FM providers running hard and soft services across sites they do not own: certification audits that sample central functions and real locations, in buildings that stay occupied while the auditor is there.
Explore the controls
The operational pressures the audit is read against
Your auditor works from the pressures your teams already carry, not from a blank template.
Consistency across dispersed sites
Hundreds of locations, client-specific procedures and mobile engineers strain any system.
SLA and KPI evidence
Clients expect performance reporting that stands up in contract reviews.
Safety in occupied buildings
Your risks and your clients' risks overlap: permits, asbestos, working alone, contractors.
Workforce churn and TUPE transfers
Competence and induction must survive constant personnel movement.
Field view
Walk the building. Meet the evidence.
Scroll through one client site, from the curb to the control room. Each stop is a service line an auditor samples and a record they ask to see.
Stop 01 / 04
One contract, many buildings
An FM contract is hundreds of small promises kept daily across sites you do not own. No audit visits all of them, so the sample is calculated and rotated, and the central functions behind them are examined every cycle.
Standards that matter in facilities management
Recommended by relevance to the sector's risk profile and customer requirements.
Certification services for this sector
Certification to ISO 9001, 45001, 14001 and 50001
Stage 1, Stage 2 and an independent certification decision across the service lines and locations inside your scope of certification.
Combined audits across service lines
Quality, safety, environment and energy examined in one visit, covering hard and soft services under a single audit programme.
Multi-site sampling
Central functions audited every cycle, plus a rotating sample of sites. Sampling applies where the system is genuinely common across locations.
Transfer, pre-assessment and training
Transfer of an active accredited certificate, an optional pre-assessment that reports gaps without prescribing fixes, and public training courses.
How the audit runs here
Sampling is calculated, not chosen by you
The site sample size comes from the accreditation body's multi-site rules and the number of locations in scope, with the mix rotated across the cycle.
The auditor goes where the work is
That means plant rooms, risers and out-of-hours attendances, arranged through your client's access rules and site inductions rather than around them.
Client-specific rules are in scope
Where a client imposes its own procedures, the auditor tests how you identify, train and monitor those requirements — not whether the client's rules are correct.
Findings graded, decision separated
A finding at one site is assessed for whether it is local or systemic. The certification decision is taken by a reviewer outside the audit team.
Sector evidence
Facilities management examples will appear here only where a certified organization has approved publication in writing. CORE does not publish client names, site details or audit findings without that consent.
