Using the term in furniture management

Furniture management can make Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) easier to apply by linking products, locations, documents, service actions and lifecycle events. The level of detail should be proportionate to product value, operational risk and the decisions the organisation needs to make.

Review records after a move, repair, refurbishment or reporting cycle. Correct outdated locations, duplicate values and unsupported claims so future users can rely on the information.
