Facilities management is a broad-based discipline that calls into play architectural, construction, engineering and management skills, particularly for running and maintaining commercial, institutional, academic, and industrial buildings. This book will cover the essential role and responsibilities of the facilities manager, both as manager of existing building inventory as well as future planning and risk-based maintenance. Newcomers to facilities management will find this an excellent introduction, while established professionals will be able to brush up on the latest technological and regulatory trends affecting how complex facilities should be successfully maintained by way of risk assessment.
