ISO 41001:2018 establishes requirements for effective facility management systems that optimize building performance, enhance occupant satisfaction, and support organizational productivity through strategic space and service management.
ISO 41001:2018 is the first international standard specifically designed for Facility Management (FM) systems, providing a structured framework to integrate people, place, process, and technology in managing built environments. It establishes requirements for strategic facility planning, service delivery, performance measurement, and continuous improvement to ensure facilities support core business objectives while optimizing operational costs. This certification applies to both in-house facility teams and third-party service providers managing buildings, workspaces, infrastructure, and support services.
The standard emphasizes demand management, service level agreements, stakeholder engagement, and sustainability practices to create productive, safe, and efficient working environments. Organizations certified under ISO 41001:2018 demonstrate their capability to deliver consistent facility services, respond effectively to changing business needs, and maximize return on facility investments while enhancing workplace experience, safety, and environmental performance.
