The latest program created by the IFMA Foundation is related to the impact of supply chain on FM's ability to maintain their facilities and critical assets. As the world emerges from the pandemic, FM organizations have a unique opportunity to drive significant, sustainable operational improvements while reducing costs and waste systemically. Within this scope, it's important for FM leaders to expand their focus to include supply chain value creation -- focusing not only on purchase price for their critical spare parts and supplies, but also on optimizing the total cost of ownership of their facilities including maximizing technician productivity, increasing asset uptime, and improving their customer in-store experience.
