The federal government maintains stringent standards in real estate management, particularly concerning the design, construction, and maintenance of its facilities. A key aspect of this is the adherence to the Facilities Standards for the Public Buildings Service (P100), which establishes mandatory design standards and performance criteria for GSA-owned buildings. These standards ensure that federal facilities meet specific requirements for safety, functionality, and sustainability.
Additionally, the government emphasizes compliance with the Federal Management Regulation (FMR) Part 102-74, which outlines policies and procedures for facility management. This regulation covers various aspects, including building operations, maintenance, and security protocols, ensuring that federal properties are managed efficiently and securely.

In terms of personnel, the government has established the Facility Operations Services Series (1640), which sets qualification standards for individuals responsible for facility operations. This includes specific educational and experience requirements to ensure that personnel managing federal facilities possess the necessary expertise and skills.
