Real estate and equipment are major corporate investments. That's one reason why facilities management is important. Acquiring, managing, and disposing of these expensive assets in the company's best interests is vital to business success.

Facilities management encompasses financial planning, architectural and engineering services, and space management. It's integral to corporate strategy – for example, whether the strategy is to expand or contract. And it's also important because it helps create a productive and safe work environment.

Facilities managers are responsible for satisfying the expectations of many different clients, both internal and external. They help make key decisions about location and layout of facilities to minimize disruption and cost. There are different facilities management styles available that are dependent on the size of the organization, the number of locations, and whether the organization is public or private.

But whatever the organization, robust strategies must be developed if facilities are to be managed efficiently and effectively.

This course addresses the basics of facilities management:
