FCE Public Lecture

The Added Value of Facilities Management:

Models for Mapping and Concepts for Managing

by Prof. Per Anker Jensen

Abstract

The lecture will present main results of the comprehensive research that the speaker and other European researchers have conducted on the theme of ”The Added Value of FM” in recent years. This will include the presentation of the so-called FM Value Map, which the speaker has developed based on a large number of case studies in Scandinavia. The FM Value Map will be compared with other models, which have been developed in The Netherlands and Finland based on the disciplin of Corporate Real Estate Management. These models can be used to analyse and demonstrate the different ways that FM and real estate can create added value to organisations and society.

Furthermore, the lecture will presents management concepts, which can guide facilities managers to develop strategies and relationships that enhances the implementation of value adding activities. This includes the concepts of Value Adding Management and FM Value Network. The lecture will mainly be based on the anthology: ”The Added Value of Facilities Management: Concepts, Findings and Perspectives”, published in May 2012 with results of the work in a EuroFM research group, which the speaker is leading.
