What are the integrated facility management companies and their services?
With the accelerated technological growth, the complexities and requirements of systems have increased, and supervision of buildings and facilities requires very careful observation. As the complexities of modern buildings increased in lots of different aspects, maintenance requirements have doubled, safety and operational technologies became more sophisticated, and new state regulations were introduced, thus increasing the expectations of those who frequent the buildings. All the while, building owners are unable to understand and fulfill the ever-changing requirements.
Hence, the concept of integrated facility management was introduced, which is a harmonious smooth management model with a core objective of coordinating between the buildings, personnel, and infrastructure, as well as providing energy, water and drainage services, all while paying attention to cleaning, afforestation, periodic and corrective maintenance, asset management, and security and safety services. Which aims to extend the longevity of the facility and preserve assets, which is often accomplished by a multidisciplinary and diverse team of experts, who manage the building through intelligent systems that seek to achieve harmony.
Why integrated facility management companies?
The relationship between integrated facility management companies and their clients is based on conveying the true value of managing buildings and facilities. Through the competitive advantage which is the ability to seamlessly fulfill the needs of the facility owners, while ensuring employee and customer satisfaction.
Facility management officials should not be bothered with contacting landscapers every time they need the garden taken care of, or renew the cleaning company’s expiring contract, or organizing between the security personnel and the maintenance crew during maintenance hours. With integrated facility management, operations will become smoother, with a great team of professionals to guarantee your organizational efficiency.
Through the process of integration, you, as an employer, will establish many essential features that are not commonly available when looking for companies to manage your facilities, which include but are not limited to the following:
