Cutting Costs while Maintaining Services – A training course designed for Facilities Managers

Every building owner faces a sum of challenges when it comes to the sustainability of the premises. The building process takes time and it is reassuring to know that money is well invested. This implies more than choosing the best building materials, it means working with teams made up of professionals, as well as implementing measures that cut energy costs and mechanical, electrical and computer based systems that have real positive impact on the long use of the building and its overall lifetime.

We, at RABO, support the correct way of developing new buildings from the very beginning and making sure they are well maintained and managed. We also know that a good Facilities Manager goes a long way.

This is why we organize Cutting Costs While Maintaining Services on April 21st, 2016, a training program dedicated to middle and senior managers who will receive practical guidance on developing facility management strategies and building an effective model in order to maintain efficient and cost effective services.

Everybody wants to cut costs, but what happens on the long run if we do so? What costs are essential when it comes to building and managing a building? Can we talk about savings? How can we ensure the long life of a building? Do we spend too much, or, on the contrary, too little? Is benchmarking a solution? Are building management systems (BMS) worth having?

These are only several questions that will be answered during this one-day training program held by Ian Cramp, Chartered Electrical Engineer and Facilities Management Consultant, senior lecturer for the British Institute of Facilities Management and Senior Assessor and Tutor for BIFM Level 4, 5 and 6 qualifications. His broad experience includes advising large organisations in Europe and the Middle East regarding their properties and how to efficiently manage them.

The job of Facilities Managers is a complex, yet sensible one. Facilities Managers often work under pressure, maintaining the building, overseeing the upkeep of equipment and supplies, knowing exactlywhat entails daily and weekly cleaning schedules, determining and scheduling repairs, waste reduction improvements, safety inspections, as well as being in charge of budgets and negotiating with outside suppliers.

Cutting Costs While Maintaining Services is organized with the aim of making Facilities Managers find the best ways to optimize costs, while maintaining the high standard of the premises; learn about the best practices that lead to efficient and cost-effective strategies and all the relevant details about such topics as cleaning systems, catering, waste disposal, among many other issues.

Bonus│ All attendees will receive a Certificate of Attendance that is recognized under the BIFM Continuing Professional Development Framework.
