Integrated Facilities Management (IFM) promises to deliver many benefits including lower cost, better services and IFM tools, and addresses new mandates like employee amenities and sustainability. But, what if your organization does not have IFM? What if there is no formal facilities management function? And, what if facilities management rests in procurement? In this case, innovating procurement leaders help the organization drive cost reduction and increase service performance by outsourcing the Office Services and expanding its responsibilities. Drawing on many clients from across industries with wide ranging facilities management needs, this presentation shared best practices and different approaches companies have implemented. We also shared five ways to reduce the facilities management costs, what results are reasonable and how to manage by exception through better data so you too can gain the benefits of IFM.
Topics covered in this session included:
- Five ways to reduce office services and facilities management costs
- How to turn office services into your personal assistant – gather data, report and manage vendors, audit and process invoices, enforce contract compliance
- How to modify the scope of outsourced Office Services to increase value without adding cost
