Are you thinking strategically?
Facilities demand a lot from their managers, especially as an estate’s equipment and assets age. Systems slow down, components break, processes become less efficient and equipment manufacturers may well stop providing support.
On a busy estate, these issues can significantly reduce productivity and efficiency – both for the employees, visitors and customers that use the spaces and the teams responsible for maintaining them.
Many facilities managers are trapped in a cycle of reactive maintenance, fighting fires rather than setting out strategic plans that make the best of their budget and resources in the long term.
It’s time to switch tactics and find an approach that allows facilities teams like yours to predict and prevent issues before they have the chance to disrupt operations.
And it could start with rethinking your technical services.
