SANS 1752:2017 Strategic Facilities Management System
SANS 1752:2017 STRATEGIC FACILITIES MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Strategic Facilities Management System standard is a South African National Standard and a subset of the ISO 41001, where organisations opt to implement a Facilities Management System that aligns with international best practices and promotes the integration of facilities management (FM) into organisational strategy, ensuring that built environments support long-term business goals.
What is SANS 1752:2017?
SANS 1752:2017 Strategic Facilities Management System (SFMS) is a strategic decision of an organisation. The design and implementation of the SFMS of an organisation is influenced by:
- the environment of the organisation changes, and the risks associated with the environment.
- the different needs of the organisation.
- the objectives of the organisation.
- the processes that the organisation employs.
- the size and structure of the organisation.
Why does an Organisation need SANS 1752:2017?
This standard can be used by the internal and external parties of an organisation, including certification bodies, to assess the ability of the organisation’s compliance with customer requirements applicable to its services, as well as the requirements of the organisation itself.
This standard promotes the adoption of a processional approach when an SFMS is being developed and implemented. An organisation runs effectively when numerous linked processes are properly managed and executed.
What are the Benefits of Implementing SANS 1752:2017?
- Ensures that facilities management (FM) functions support the core mission, values, and goals of the organisation.
- Promotes data-driven decision-making for facilities planning and upgrades.
- Reduces downtime, extends asset life, and improves resource utilisation.
- Supports compliance with ISO standards, such as ISO 41001 (FM), ISO 9001 (quality), and ISO 14001 (environment).
