Facility Management in Schools
Peter McLennan, Senior Lecturer in Facility Management at the Bartlett School of Graduate Studies, University College London, gave a presentation on Facility Management in Schools. He pointed out that schools are an example of ‘trading through the space’ – the classroom is the space through which the service of teaching is carried out. Therefore, he focused on FM as a service operation, operating budgets (Capex vs. Opex assumptions) and problems of traditional briefing process. He presented his research idea to examine how to reduce year on year OpEx exposure over the life time of the building (EPSRC Grant).
