I am currently serving as the Chair of CEN/TC 348 – Facility Management, the European Technical Committee responsible for the development of standards in the field of Facility Management under the European Committee for Standardization (CEN).

In this role, I work closely with experts and national standardization bodies to promote harmonized, high-quality, and sustainable practices across Europe.

CEN/TC 348 collaborates internationally with ISO/TC 267 – Facility Management through the Vienna Agreement, aligning European and global standards.

My contributions to Wikipedia focus on improving and expanding articles related to standardization, facility management, and the built environment.

All contributions are based on publicly available, reliable, and verifiable sources, including:

• [CEN/TC 348 Business Plan (CEN)](https://standards.cencenelec.eu/BPCEN/414882.pdf) – outlines the objectives, structure, and current work of CEN/TC 348.
• [ISO/TC 267 official committee page (ISO)](https://committee.iso.org/home/tc267) – describes the international activities and standards in Facility Management.
• [ISO/TC 267 news section (ISO)](https://committee.iso.org/sites/tc267/home/news.html) – provides updates on plenary meetings, collaborations, and developments.
• [Introduction to the Vienna Agreement (CEN-CENELEC)](https://www.cencenelec.eu/european-standardization/what-is-european-standardization/) – explains the cooperation mechanism between ISO and CEN.
• [Facility Management and the Sustainable Development Goals (IFMA/Research paper)](https://pages.ifma.org/iso-tc267) – links FM standardization to global sustainability efforts.

I am committed to maintaining a neutral point of view and adhering strictly to Wikipedia’s guidelines for verifiability, reliability, and neutrality.

As Chair of CEN/TC 348, I may occasionally edit or contribute to articles related to Facility Management standardization.

All edits are made in good faith, based on neutral sources, and in accordance with Wikipedia's content policies.
