Scope & Statutory Mandate

Physical Building Systems Maintained to Institutional Standard

Hard Facilities Management (Hard Services) encompasses the physical, structural, and engineered infrastructure embedded in a building. Under the CIDB Act 520 definition and the ISO 41001 Standard, Hard FM represents the licensed technical operations that protect occupants from life safety hazards, regulatory shutdowns, and business interruption.

Our engineering leadership designs tailored maintenance specifications around OEM guidelines, asset criticality rankings, and statutory audit checkpoints. By shifting facility portfolios from reactive troubleshooting to structured predictive maintenance, we extend asset life cycles and protect corporate capital investments.

Comprehensive Engineering Scope

Our Hard Facilities Management Services

From scheduled weekly inspections to certified chargeman oversight, each service is tracked in CMMS and reported directly to your management.

Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing (MEP)

The core engineering systems of any commercial or industrial building. Access Grid manages HV/LV electrical distribution, DB panel thermography, generator and UPS load testing, sanitary plumbing, and water supply reticulation through scheduled PPM and 24/7 emergency dispatch. All high-voltage and wiring works are handled by ST-certified wiremen and registered chargemen.

HV/LV Switchboards Generator Testing UPS Systems DB Thermography ST Certified Wiremen 24/7 Response

Air-Conditioning & HVAC (ACMV)

Full ACMV lifecycle maintenance across all system topologies — centralized water-cooled chillers, air-cooled chillers, AHUs, FCUs, cooling towers, and multi-split VRF/VRV systems. We enforce OEM-based PPM schedules, chemical water treatment for cooling towers, refrigerant leak monitoring, and energy optimization aligned with Malaysian Standard MS1525.

Fire Fighting & Detection Systems

End-to-end fire safety assurance — wet/dry riser sprinkler systems, addressable fire alarm panels, hose reels, fire hydrants, emergency exit lighting, smoke dampers, and clean agent gas suppression. Rigorous servicing compliant with Jabatan Bomba dan Penyelamat Malaysia (BOMBA), including annual certification audits and quarterly operational flow testing.

High-Rise & Façade Maintenance

Specialist building envelope care at height — external façade cleaning, structural glass inspection, rope access sealant renewal, water-ingress remedial works, and architectural lighting repair. All works are executed by DOSH-certified rope access technicians operating under strict HIRARC protocols and Permit-to-Work (PTW) governance.

Civil & Building Fabric Works

Preventive and restorative care for structural fabric — industrial roofing inspection, leak mitigation, drywall/masonry repair, epoxy floor coating upkeep, high-traffic commercial door hardware, roller shutters, and loading dock levelers. Proactive fabric maintenance stops moisture intrusion and protects asset valuation.

Lifts, Escalators & Specialist Systems

Third-party SLA governance and technical oversight of vertical transport OEM maintenance agreements. We verify JKKP statutory inspection renewals (PMA certificates), audit OEM preventative maintenance checklists, and enforce strict entrapment and breakdown resolution response times.

Operational Methodology

The 5 Maintenance Regimes

A balanced maintenance strategy blends all five regimes to eliminate unbudgeted repair surprises and maximize asset return on investment.

01 Predictive

Condition-Based Servicing

Deploying acoustic ultrasound, vibration analysis, and infrared thermography to catch bearing wear, insulation breakdown, and thermal hot spots long before catastrophic equipment shutdown.

02 Scheduled

OEM-Based PPM

Systematic monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual service routines calibrated to manufacturer specifications and tracked via digital CMMS work orders.

03 Corrective

Planned Defect Remediation

Rectifying early non-critical wear and defects identified during routine inspections before they cascade into high-cost emergency shutdowns.

04 Emergency

24/7 Breakdown Dispatch

Fast-dispatch mobile engineering flying squads for sudden power outages, chiller trips, or plumbing bursts with guaranteed SLA response windows.

05 Statutory

Mandatory Compliance

Scheduled statutory renewals ensuring full compliance with Suruhanjaya Tenaga (ST), BOMBA Fire Certificates, DOSH/JKKP registrations, and OSHA 1994 amendments.

Client Inquiries

Hard FM Frequently Asked Questions

How does Access Grid manage Hard FM compliance with Malaysian statutory authorities?
All statutory inspections (Suruhanjaya Tenaga, DOSH/JKKP, Jabatan Bomba) are tracked on our centralized compliance calendar. We ensure competent persons (wiremen, chargemen, boiler engineers) perform required servicing, logbooks are maintained on site, and certificates of fitness (PMA/PMT, FC) are renewed well before expiry.
What is your target ratio for planned versus reactive maintenance?
We target an 80% Planned Preventive Maintenance (PPM) to 20% Reactive Maintenance ratio. Research and practice prove that facility portfolios operating on reactive firefighting spend up to 3 to 4 times more on asset replacement and unplanned operational downtime.
Do you maintain legacy or proprietary ACMV and chiller plants?
Yes. Our senior engineering leads and certified technicians have extensive experience servicing Daikin, Carrier, York, Trane, Dunham-Bush, and Mitsubishi plants across commercial offices, data hubs, cleanrooms, and automated warehouses.
How are maintenance activities tracked and reported to clients?
Every scheduled PPM task, corrective rectification, and emergency callout is logged in our Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS). Clients receive real-time photographic audit logs, equipment health indices, and monthly executive performance summaries.
