Building Operating and Maintenance

Manuals
The operation and maintenance manual (O&M) defines the requirements and procedures for the
effective operation, maintenance, decommissioning and demolition of the building. The operating
and maintenance manual includes details of the building's construction, history and maintenance,
instructions for its operation and maintenance, and guarantees and warranties.
With the ever-increasing complexity of buildings, so increases the volume of operation and
maintenance (O&M) information required to ensure the services are operated correctly
Edocuments Electronic Operating and Maintenance Manuals (O&M) are designed to alleviate the
inherent problems associated with paper based technical documents. Drawings, manufacturer's
literature, certificates and other specialist data are all included electronically. The digital documents
once created provide a replica of the paper documents in an easily stored, accessed, and secure
format. For ease of use the familiarity, structure and layout of the paper document is retained.
As well as Mechanical & Electrical O&M templates, Edocuments can provide templates for
