Programmed Maintenance - Includes Capital Infrastructure: Structural systems forming the building’s fundamental structure (e.g. rainwater systems, walls, floors, doors, windows) and Non-Essential Infrastructure: Assets providing additional amenity (e.g. lifts, pools, air conditioning, landscaping)

Soft Services - Recurring maintenance tasks outside of hard services (e.g. cleaning, waste disposal, gardening, consumable stock maintenance)
