Facility Management information from GreenerBuildings

The broad category of facility management addresses a wide range of topics, including:

• waste management
• water conservation
• energy efficiency
• use of non-toxic cleaning and maintenance materials (pollution prevention)
• resource-efficient groundskeeping

Improved performance in any one of these areas can produce tangible savings for the business-savvy facility manager.

Buildings generate waste during operation; can have poor indoor air quality, affecting worker health; and produce roughly a third of carbon dioxide emissions and other emissions that harm air quality. By improving and streamlining day-to-day building operations, facility managers can create and maintain a better work environment while netting big financial dividends for their organization.
