This question's explanation and your answers so far.
問 48
Incorrectア
Asset management is a management method that evaluates the value and life-cycle cost of assets and optimizes their investment, maintenance, renewal, and disposal. It is not a term that directly refers to the activity of planning and carrying out the routine maintenance and preservation of the equipment itself (entry/exit control or UPS connection), so it is inappropriate.
Incorrectイ
An environmental management system (EMS, ISO 14001) is a framework for continuously reducing the impact of an organization's activities on the global environment. Its scope covers matters such as energy saving and waste reduction, and its purpose differs from that of maintaining and preserving the facilities and equipment used for development, so it is inappropriate.
Incorrectウ
A quality management system (QMS, ISO 9001) is a framework for keeping the quality of products and services consistent and raising customer satisfaction. Its scope is the quality control of business processes, and it is not the activity of planning and carrying out the maintenance and preservation of facilities and equipment itself, so it is inappropriate.
- エ
正解 Facility management in option エ is a management activity that maintains, preserves, and makes use of owned assets such as buildings, facilities, and equipment in the state that is optimal for business operations. The examples in the question fit this exactly. That is, “setting up a room to ensure the confidentiality of test data and performing entry/exit control” is the management and preservation of a facility (the working space), and “connecting the test server to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to prevent data loss during a power outage” is the maintenance and preservation of power equipment. Both are efforts to keep the facilities and equipment that support system development in good condition, so as the activity that plans and carries these out, エ is appropriate.
- Facility management = a management activity that maintains, preserves, and utilizes buildings, facilities, and equipment in the state optimal for the business. Entry/exit control and the provision of power equipment (UPS) are concrete examples.
- Distinguishing the confusing options: asset management (optimizing asset value), environmental management system (reducing environmental load, ISO 14001), and quality management system (ensuring quality, ISO 9001) each have a different management target.
