Tell me about the facilities management sector
The facilities management sector is a broad industry that encompasses the management and maintenance of physical assets and infrastructure such as buildings, office equipment, IT systems, and other physical resources. Facilities management is typically divided into four primary categories: maintenance, operations, management, and support. Maintenance includes activities such as general repairs, preventative maintenance, and emergency repairs. Operations involve day-to-day tasks such as janitorial services, landscaping, security, and other tasks that keep the facilities operational. Management includes planning, budgeting, and overseeing the facilities and staff that work in them. Support services involve providing technical and administrative assistance to the organization.
