Facilities management: the wider implications of managing change
Abstract
This paper looks at facilities management (FM) in the wider context of the social, economic and political changes that are taking place at the end of the twentieth century. It argues that the core of FM relates to managing the changes that are taking place in the relationship between organisations, their employees and their facilities, all of which are being fundamentally altered by external forces. It pleads for a greater understanding of the issues raised by the debate around postmodernism and the impact they have had on the development of FM to date and will have on its future.
