Follow on Google News | Facilities Management Market Set for Change in 2010The Facilities Management market will continue to see a dramatic shift toward multi-service provision in 2010, according to a new market report from MTW Research, with clients following ‘flight to price’ procurement strategies to reduce costs.
By: MTW Research MTW also found that the Facilities Management market has become increasingly characterised by closer relationships between suppliers and contractors, as greater efficiencies and lower procurement costs are sought. During 2009, several FM companies established programmes specifically designed to improve supplier relationships to ensure that material and equipment suppliers were aligned with customer relationship principles and accountable for their own supply chains.

Based on sales figures from the industry, the total FM market is currently worth just under £90 billion according to MTW, with operations and maintenance services the largest sector in 2010 and integrated or ‘bundled’ FM service provision now the second largest market segment. The report states that security services provision, which includes CCTV monitoring, access control, security screening etc has grown steadily in recent years. MTW point to a greater emphasis on public safety and anti-terrorist activity supporting buoyant growth in security services demand in 2010 and beyond, with this sector anticipated to outstrip overall FM market growth in the longer term.
