If we are the property management team of an office building, we only address purchases made by the building. The only purchases are made for janitorial, maintance, facility alterations etc.. which are described in other credits. My question relates to the first 'questions to consider' comment above, "What types of purchases are within the building and site management’s control?" I understand this must talk to MRc1 ongoing consumables but do not know if we have any ongoing purchases as the property manager outside what is talked about in other credits already and are not sure as to what possible purchases to include? Thanks in advance.

I would suggest writing your MRp1 policy so as to encompass all ongoing or possible future purchases within the scope of purchasing described by the credit. That is, even if you don't currently purchase any ongoing consumables as the property management, ensure that the policy covers any purchases that might occur in the future if circumstances change. The same applies to durable goods and the rest - your policy will be the formal document that guides your performance; that performance will then be documented within the specific credit. Hope that helps.
