An increase in infrastructure developments in the East African region is witnessed by rise in industrial, commercial, residential and educational construction and maintenance projects. With diverse real estate portfolios, property owners are realizing the importance of not just managing the assets, but also serving occupants for a smooth functioning of the business.
This trend has resulted in the need for awareness and adoption of a sustained, holistic Facility Management practice that will result in considerable cost savings – achieved via enhanced energy management, efficient space utilization, IoT integration, safety & security and planned maintenance which reduce costs, protect occupants and increase the facility lifespan.
The East Africa Facilities Management Summit 2019 in Nairobi on July 24-25 will focus on the importance of sustainable Facilities Management in the entire Building Lifecycle Management with the objective of raising awareness and increase the standard of professional Facility Managers in the region.
