What is Facility Management?
Facilities management is the management and maintenance of buildings, properties, and
other physical assets. The main objective of facilities management is to ensure that
buildings and facilities are appropriately managed and maintained to provide a safe,
secure, and comfortable environment for occupants and users. Facilities management
involves various activities, such as cleaning, maintenance, repairs, security,
landscaping, waste management, and energy management. Facilities managers may
coordinate with contractors, vendors, and other service providers to ensure the
maintenance of facilities in a timely and cost-effective manner. They may also
manage budgets, oversee staff, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements
and safety standards. Effective facilities management is critical for organizations,
including businesses, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and
government agencies. By ensuring that facilities are well-managed and maintained,
facilities managers can help organizations reduce operational costs, improve safety
and security, and enhance their operations' overall productivity and efficiency.
Challenge
Facilities management is critical for maintaining operational efficiency, ensuring
employees' safety, increasing productivity, creating a welcoming environment for
employees and clients, and essential "risk management." The hurdle of building and
financing the construction of a new facility is daunting - but this is only the
first step if you want to ensure that you benefit from the entire life cycle of
those facility assets. Safety, statutory and regulatory compliance, and ongoing
insurability are among the many challenges a facility owner will face over their
valuable assets' lifetime.

Transformation
Careful planning and timely
execution are required. The first step in the process is as important as
each of the others, especially as it will lay out the initial plan and
approach for the transformation goal. We will develop a shared understanding
of immediate needs. We will then agree on priorities, including achievable
needs, over what timeframe, by whom, and doing what. We will then jointly
develop a future facilities management framework to automize the process and
reduce risk (operational, financial, environmental, social, and
governance).
Our transformative facility management process will
examine:
- Accountability: ensuring employee safety, increasing
productivity, and creating a welcoming environment for employees and any users
of the facilities.
- Participation: understanding that people are the key to
facility management - not only the beneficiaries of sustainable environmental,
social, and governance - but also the agents of it.
- Transparency: moving from the traditional secrecy of processes
to sharing relevant and appropriate information.
- Effectiveness and Efficiency: providing effective and efficient
facilities for its users, the wider community, and the environment.
As part of our process, we will focus on the
following:
- Identifying and building: on the achievements of any previous
work and knowledge.
- Promoting broad participation: through our research process and
stakeholder engagement, we will identify the challenges, needs, hopes, and
aspirations of various stakeholders and their relationship with the facilities.
- Engaging in and maintaining quality communications: ensuring
our experts work closely with each other and our counterparts from the client.
- Ensuring the transfer of knowledge: Providing focused and
informative advice and stakeholder engagement that addresses the issues and
includes practical means to resolve any issues arising as they happen and in the
design and application for future projects. All is achievable through adherence
to a robust facilities management process.
