When your organisation’s ability to deliver is critically dependent on your air conditioning, you face a real risk management challenge.
There are over 1,000 failure modes that can affect the operation of an air conditioning system.
Some businesses particularly sensitive to downtime or poor operation are:
- Pharmaceutical / medical sterile manufacture
- Sensitive manufacture e.g. printing
- Food production and packing
- IT and network services
- Clubs, venues and retail
- Key offices
Well-conceived, well-executed design and maintenance are critical here,

in a competitive environment, all expenditure must undergo scrutiny, and the pressure can be relentless. Ensuring critical function and reliability, whilst managing and improving costs is the toughest (and riskiest) of balancing acts.
