Facility Management

[dimpy.handa]

In business, facility management is the management of buildings and services. These services are sometimes considered to be divided into 'hard services' and 'soft services'; hard services includes such things as ensuring that a building's air conditioning is operating efficiently, reliably, safely and legally; soft services includes such things as ensuring that the building is cleaned properly and regularly or monitoring the performance of contractors, e.g. builders, electricians etc. It is the role of facility management to ensure that everything is available for the other staff in an organisation to do their work. Facility management may range from the small scale, e.g. a school caretaker or janitor to the large scale such as Johnson Controls' operation of Chrysler manufacturing. Some facility management companies, e.g. Regus, have grown to simply provide environments which other organisations may rent on demand in order to do business in a 'hotel' environment.

[The discipline of facility management and the role of facility managers in particular are evolving to the extent that many managers have to operate at two levels: strategic-tactical and operational. In the former case, owners need to be informed about the potential impact of their decisions on the provision of space and services. In the latter, it is the role of a facility manager to ensure proper operation of all aspects of a building to create an optimal, safe and cost effective environment for the occupants to function.

In the US, facility management is very widely used.
