What is planned preventative maintenance?

Planned preventative maintenance (PPM) is a scheduled programme of inspections, servicing and statutory tests for a building's plant and systems, carried out before things fail. We build the PPM calendar from an asset register, visit on a fixed cycle and hand back certificates and reports after every visit.

What is included in Suffolk?

  • Annual lifecycle summary to help plan capital spend
  • Defect reports with prioritised, priced remedials
  • PPM calendar matched to SFG20-style task frequencies
  • Statutory tests booked and certificated on time
  • Boilers, pumps, air handling, extract and controls

Rules that apply in England

Many PPM tasks are not optional: gas appliances need annual safety checks under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, pressure systems need a written scheme of examination under the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000, and fire and emergency lighting systems follow BS 5839-1 and BS 5266-1. In England, fire safety in non-domestic premises falls under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, workplaces have had to separate recycling under Simpler Recycling since 31 March 2025, and the Building Safety Act 2022 adds duties for higher-risk residential buildings.
