QMF Assessment
The QMF process that has been developed by CFM/
4FM represents a very thorough audit of
facilities and the infrastructure that has been
set-up to operate and maintain these to the
highest possible standards. We believe that the
award demonstrates a commitment to achieving best
in class standards on a sustained basis and we
are delighted to have worked with CFM to achieve
the gold award at Belgrave House in London. We
are now looking at how we roll-out this standard
across all of the major facilities that we
support. Frank Rodriguez, Director Covion
The building, its management processes and
systems, and integrated service operation meet
stringent quality criteria, and we are confident
that the occupants will be supported to the
highest standards. Prof Keith Alexander,
Director CFM
