Best value FM will remain an elusive goal for public sector real property owners until a transformation of basic management practices takes place.
The path to best value facilities requires competency in both life-cycle total-cost-of-ownership asset management and LEAN construction planning, procurement, and project delivery. Both require higher levels of leadership, commitment, and competency that previously available. Until transformation to best value FM occurs, however, rampant economic and environmental waster will remain the norm.
