No matter the industry, most businesses require facilities management in some form. Although many are familiar with “FM”, the term “IFM” doesn’t seem to harbor the same familiarity.
Facility Management (FM) is the individual tools and services that support the functionality, safety, and sustainability of buildings, grounds, infrastructure, and real estate. Some of these activities include the maintenance of interiors, grounds, assets and building systems to ensure they operate efficiently and are reliable and safe. These are split into hard and soft services.
Hard Services
These services pertain directly to the building itself. They’re inseparable from the building and are typically considered capital expenditures. These services may include, Building maintenance, Fire safety, Electrical, Mechanical, HVAC, Gas & Plumbing, and Lightening.
Soft Services
Unlike hard services, which are built into the property, soft services augment it. These services primarily improve the wellbeing of the people within the facilities and allow them to make the most of their time in them. These services may include, Cleaning, Catering, Landscaping, Pest Control, Waste Management, Industrial Cleaning, and Ground Maintenance.
The AFM Ireland IFM approach consolidates all the FM efforts under one united team – a team that is integrated and performs the work collaboratively – as opposed to managing multiple vendors and contractors, you have one dedicated facility partner.

What is IFM?
The list of services that fall under facility management is long and most companies sub-contract services to multiple vendors. This siloed approach is time-consuming and can often take clients away from focusing on their core business responsibilities. Managing multiple vendors and gathering facility insights from a dozen different sources is inefficient, less organized, and difficult to control.
