A brief description of the sustainable operations and maintenance policy/program and/or O+M rating system(s) used:
Implementation of sustainable building operations and maintenance practices directly impacts ongoing building costs and the internal occupant comfort and external building environment. Successful campus-wide implementation of these O&M guidelines can therefore lead to substantial economic, social, and environmental benefits.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Operations & Maintenance comprise the day-to-day activities necessary for built systems to perform their functions. O&M has developed into one term because a system cannot operate without being maintained. The enhanced guidelines in this document differ from typical O&M practices because of the underlying goals of sustainable practices mentioned above. A shift from reactive to preventive maintenance focus has already happened in Facilities Services shops.
Reactive Maintenance is sometimes referred to as breakdown maintenance or “replace on failure.” It is not a desirable approach as it guarantees interruption of service. Equipment life may be significantly shortened due to the lack of regular maintenance, and costs end up higher in the long run.
Preventive Maintenance refers to performing regularly scheduled tasks and equipment replacements to avoid problems before they occur. Examples of preventive maintenance include replacing fan belts annually or replacing air conditioning units every ten years. It is possible that the replaced equipment could operate longer, but the odds of a failure and
the frequency of repairs increase as the equipment gets older. Replacement decisions must balance with the operational risk of equipment failure and resource efficiency of utilizing a material or system beyond end of projected useful life.
Predictive Maintenance relies on monitoring or testing to predict problems and deal with them before they become too big. Predictive maintenance tasks can include measuring vibration, temperatures, efficiency or other characteristics and comparing them to engineering limits. Equipment is repaired or replaced when results exceed limits.
