Property Management Centre of Expertise
The Government Property Management Centre of Expertise (PMCoE) creates opportunity to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Crown office property expenditure.
The mandated roles and responsibilities of the PMCoE, as decided by Cabinet, are as follows:
- To provide leadership through working with agencies to identify and promote opportunities to drive efficiency and effectiveness gains in property management, and recommend property management expectations for approval by Cabinet.
- To provide guidance and support by documenting and publishing “best practice”; working with agencies to move towards “best practice”, and identify agencies with strong property management expertise that are willing to advise and support their peers.
- To monitor performance by collecting and collating office property metrics and information, and to publish an annual report on property
- To provide a brokerage service to match Crown agencies seeking space with those who have surplus space, investigate the shared contracting of property related supplies and facilities management, and support the co-location of agencies (including identifying common barriers to co-location and development solutions).
The PMCoE proudly supports improvements in property management and seeks to leverage knowledge, increase knowledge-sharing and improve property management practice across many government agencies, regardless of size.
The PMCoE provides tools, information and guidance on government property management best practice and is the central repository for the cross government property data base, enabling the identification and facilitation of co-location or collective procurement opportunities.
The PMCoE is also responsible for the creation of and maintenance of the Property Management Guidelines.
