The ISO 41001:2018 FMS is further bifurcated into; Hard Facility Management and Soft Facility Management for smooth and easy administration throughout the year.

Hard facilities management – it covers the entire space and infrastructure, more of the physical part of the organization, such as heating, lighting, plumbing, fire safety systems, air conditioning, electro-mechanical maintenance, preventive building maintenance, and more. Hard Facility Management is a permanent type as the content can’t be removed but can be updated.

Soft facilities management is of a temporary kind, it can be removed easily and can be changed from time to time.
