The Service Review Model for Repairs and Maintenance is an innovative, easy to use model, designed to assist Directors or Managers to conduct a complete self-assessment of their repairs and maintenance function and to take control of their own service review work in a structured approach.

Updated for 2010/11 for the latest TSA standards and recognising the new era of self-regulation and evidence based self assessment,this comprehensive model combines service reviews with benchmarking, allowing you to gain a complete understanding of how well your Repairs and Maintenance function is performing not only internally, but also with its peers and against excellent service standards.

4. Provides a complete view of cost, quality, performance and effectiveness.
5. Demonstrates where you are in comparison with your peers.
