You might think that with industries’ worst record of accomplishment, that the AECOO and Facilites Management Sector, would be focused upon cost management.   The opposite is true. 

You might think that with industries’ worst track record (77% of construction projects late, 52%+ of projects requiring change orders/rework, 98% of construction projects over budget more than 30%) that the AECOO and Facilites Management Sector, spanning real property owners, design-builders, and oversight groups, would be focused upon cost management.   The opposite is true.  Ninety-nine percent of all these players do not rely upon objective locally researched detailed line-item cost databases.

Sustainable facilities repair, renovation, maintenance, of new construction is virtually impossible with both locally researched, current, and actionable construction in combination with a robust, integrated framework integrating internal and external planning, procurement, and project delivery.

BIM, 5S, Takt time, Poka-Yoke, Kaizen, blackbelt, …  All have their role as tools, learnings, and or philosophies, but NONE are solutions.

Will things change?  Probably not.

All the tools and support systems are readily available…. as to political will, not so much.

Most common Facilities Management and AECO (Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operation) failure points:

1. No real property owner leadership, commitment, and/or competency
2. Lack of integrated, collaborative planning, procurement, and project delivery teams
3. Lack of transparency and accountability in the public sector
4. Zero verifiable cost information
5. Home grown project management and cost management systems, or outdated legacy systems
6. Limited visibility into portfolio conditions, requirements, or priorities

   

7. Poor decision-making processes
8. Command and control management versus collaborative empowerment and enabling decision-making by those doing the work
