The ACMO 2000 Certification standard is a quality management system designed specifically for condominium management service provider firms. The standard consists of vigorous core operating standards, principles, procedures, and best practices designed to improve efficiency and effectiveness in four key operational areas: internal management, board relations, supplier relations and field operations. The objective of the ACMO 2000 Certification program is to increase the quality of management services delivered to condominium corporations by:
ACMO 2000 Certified firms undergo an independent audit every 3 years to ensure ongoing compliance with the standard. In addition, ACMO 2000 Certified firms agree to support and employ managers with the Registered Condominium Manager (RCM) designation and CMRAO general license.
By pursuing certification, ACMO 2000 Certified firms voluntarily choose to adhere to a higher standard of transparency, accountability, and performance above minimum regulatory requirements. Whether a small or large management firm, those with the ACMO 2000 Certification represents the gold standard in professional condominium management and strive to deliver higher quality service and care to the condominium communities they serve.
Achieving the ACMO 2000 Certification helps optimize your operations and gives you a unique designation that can be leveraged in your marketing and promotions to give you a competitive advantage. In addition, throughout the year, ACMO actively promotes the ACMO 2000 Certification program through its online registry and ongoing promotions to raise awareness of its value with decision-makers.
The first step towards becoming ACMO 2000 Certified is becoming an ACMO Corporate Member and then developing and implementing your operating systems as set out in the ACMO 2000 Certification Manual. It typically takes an organization about 3 months to get everything developed and implemented. Once all of your systems are in place, you can request an ACMO 2000 Certification Audit conducted by an independent auditor.
If the audit is passed, the ACMO Membership Standards Committee will issue a comprehensive audit report and a Certification Plaque to display in your office. As well, your firm will be listed in the public ACMO 2000 Certified Firm Registry, and ACMO will actively promote the fact that your firm has been certified across various ACMO media.
