- fire safety, emergency preparedness, contractor safety compliance
- Implement and enforce strong HSE governance, toolbox talks, permits-to-work, and safe systems of work.

- Coordinate with Asset Management and Development on:
- defects liability, warranty claims, and latent defect tracking
- handover requirements, commissioning gaps, and long-term maintainability enhancements
- Lead FM input into capex prioritization and execution readiness (scope definition, sequencing, risk controls).
7) Cost Management, Budgets & Efficiency
- Own FM budgets and cost drivers: utilities, maintenance, contracts, consumables, spare parts, tools, and specialist services.
- Deliver cost optimization initiatives without compromising safety or quality (energy efficiency, maintenance efficiency, demand planning, supply chain savings).
- Validate commercial implications of operating changes and ensure disciplined cost governance.
8) Digital Enablement & Performance Reporting
- Drive digital FM maturity: CAFM/CMMS adoption, asset data integrity, mobile workforce enablement, and dashboard reporting.
- Implement performance analytics for trend-based improvement: repeat failures, response-time breaches, service quality, and cost-to-serve.
- Ensure integration readiness with enterprise systems (ERP interfaces for POs/PRs, reporting automation).
9) Stakeholder & Resident Experience Interface
- Partner with Property Management, Community Management, Catering, Security, and IT to deliver a cohesive resident experience.
- Ensure resident communication protocols for planned shutdowns, service interruptions, and issue resolution are clear and timely.
