What is facilities management?
Facilities management (FM) is an organisational function which integrates people, place, and process within the built environment with the purpose of improving the quality of life of people and the productivity of the core business. According to ISO 41011 and IFMA standards, FM encompasses a wide range of activities ensuring the functionality, comfort, safety, sustainability, and efficiency of built environments across various sectors, including offices, retail centers, industrial buildings, schools, and hospitals.
Why facilities management matters to your organisation?

Through a person-centric approach that prioritises occupant needs and well-being, FM creates environments where individuals can thrive while supporting core business functions. Our range of services supports estates and facilities managers in ensuring environmental safety, as well as the health, safety, and welfare of employees and the public.

Project Lifecycle Support
Planning & Design
Our services optimise your project from inception. We deliver comprehensive environmental impact assessments and health and safety consultancy that establish a foundation for sustainable operations. Building design compliance reviews ensure regulatory adherence while our sustainability planning creates long-term value through resource-efficient design strategies.
Construction & Implementation
During the construction phase, our Facilities Management Services safeguard project integrity through quality assurance protocols. We conduct thorough construction site safety audits and continuous environmental monitoring to mitigate risks and ensure compliance with industry standards, while our materials testing validates structural integrity.
Operation & Maintenance
Our computer-aided facility management (CAFM) solutions streamline operational efficiency and asset longevity. Facilities Management Services during this critical phase include regular compliance audits and comprehensive asbestos management to protect occupants and meet regulatory requirements, while our water testing and air quality monitoring ensure a healthy environment.
Renovation & Decommissioning
Our Facilities Management Services support end-of-lifecycle transitions with minimal environmental impact. Pre-refurbishment asbestos surveys protect workers and occupants during renovations, while our decommissioning safety assessments ensure hazardous materials are properly managed, allowing for safe site repurposing or redevelopment.
