“Facility Management is not attracting enough new talent to replace its retiring professionals.  Remarkably, more of RICS’ Facility Management professional members are over 70 than under 30, and less than 15% of them are under 40 years of age. IFMA faces a similar challenge; based on a 30% sample of its 24,000-plus members, the average IFMA member is 50.9 years old.”

Technology is Crucial “Facility Management must also adopt technology more quickly and far more deeply.  It must move beyond technology to monitor space utilization and energy consumption, to a focus on using technology, data, and analytics to underpin and enhance the workplace experience."
