Facility Management Past, present and future of the industry
The Birth of Modern FM • Real estate has been around for thousands of years – Traditionally, the built environment was treated as simply a container holding the tools of productivity • Modern FM became possible with a shift in mindset – Built environment is itself a tool that FMs can leverage to achieve organizational goals – Systems furniture — commonly called cubicles — in the early 1970 s set the stage

The whole world is constructing modern buildings packed full of smart technology…
Smart Buildings Are the Future • 1 Trillion sensors by 2025 • 120 building sensors in operation for every person alive.
But smart buildings are falling short • “There is substantial evidence that buildings do not perform as well as anticipated at the design stage Post-occupancy evaluations showed that actual energy consumption in buildings was often twice as much as predicted. ” – Sustainable Construction: Realizing the opportunities for built environment professionals.
The “performance gap” • Many reasons smart buildings are not performing as effectively as expected. • Record amounts of data, but disconnected from anything useful. • Smart technology not performing as expected or being used as intended. • Focus remains on the building and the technology – We certify the buildings themselves as green or smart.
What is missing? People. • “An EPA official noted that finding and retaining facility energy managers with the appropriate level of expertise is important but challenging; without effective energy management, agencies could have difficulty achieving certain EISA energy and water management requirements. ” – U. S. Government Accountability Office report 10 -22
