Building and site management is no longer just about maintenance, repairing broken equipment, or ensuring regular inspections. Modern facility management is today a strategic service that saves companies time, money, and relieves them of all the worries associated with the operation of premises and technologies.
As Tomáš Čerkes, director of the PPA POWER DS center, says: "You can tell good facility services by the fact that you don't have to know about them. Everything works - reliably, safely and efficiently."
It is this approach that distinguishes PPA POWER DS, a member of the PPA CONTROLL group, from conventional providers of building and premises management and maintenance. It expanded its portfolio in 2008 as a natural step after many years of experience in energy and distribution network management. Today, building and premises management is a key part of the portfolio, combining their technical management with professional energy know-how and the stable background of a strong group.
Why is facility management important and what does it bring?
In modern business, it is no longer profitable for companies to focus on the daily operational details - from technology maintenance to green care. Facility management means relieving the burden of routine duties and focusing on the core business.
Clients gain higher operational reliability, reduce costs, have professional support available, and thanks to preventive measures, they avoid failures or unnecessary downtime. "We don't just focus on solving problems, but above all on preventing them. That is the greatest added value for clients," adds Tomáš Čerkes.

The internal maintenance team was able to focus on specialized production technology, while the facility team took care of technical maintenance, supplier coordination, and waste management. The result? More stable operations, cost savings, and a satisfied client.
"The relationship with clients is personal, beyond the scope of duties, with an emphasis on long-term partnerships. We take care of them like family, we will advise, help, and propose solutions that make sense," confirms Tomáš Čerkes.
Outsourcing facility management can bring significant benefits, especially if entrusted to a reliable partner with professional capabilities who offers not only services, but also a system, accountability, and transparent communication.
""It is always important to start with a professional analysis of the current state of the administration, looking at the efficiency of processes, team capacities, recurring failures and unused opportunities for savings. Based on this, it is possible to create a solution proposal that will be tailored to the needs and budget," supplied by the PPA POWER DS manager for the PPA CONTROLL group.
