23、furniture and effects aimed at dealing with the service and with the provision of the service to private individuals conducted by the profession. Within each activity, it has been necessary to make a distinction between the “service” on the one hand, and the “provision of the service” on the other h

24、and: the service: all the services agreed upon between the service provider and the customer within the framework of the contract; includes characteristics which allow this said service to be assessed; the provision of the service: all the means engaged by the service provider which include the pers

25、onnel, the equipment, the organization and the budget with a view to carrying out the service. The systems of reference constitute a beneficial means of achieving the following objectives: to create a dialogue with the customer which is favourable to the profession; to permit customers to identify a

26、nd compare the services offered by companies in order to benefit from the positive spin-off of fair competition in an open market; to protect customers against provision of services, the characteristics of which may not be in compliance with the standards; to allow the professionals of the trade to

27、conduct their activity with the aid of technical specifications that are clearly defined by a common understanding; finally, as regards the single market, to allow the activity to position itself efficiently in order to meet the needs of the European customer by having at its disposal, in particular

28、, harmonized general conditions of contract. 1 Scope This standard specifies the minimum qualitative and quantitative rules and characteristics of a furniture removal service. It also specifies the principles which govern the general conditions of contract of the furniture removal service within the

29、 most appropriate legal and contractual framework within each of the member states.

30、e moving of personal property, generally consisting of non-commercial property and/or property which is in current use. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriat

31、e places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter.
