Title : Sustainable FM via the ISO 41000 series for facility management
Abstract:
Since 2012, ISO/TC 267 has published 12 current FM standards and technical reports, including revisions, with more publications under development.
The ISO 41000 series of Facility Management (FM) standards contribute directly to the future of the FM profession and its value proposition. These international FM standards are being rapidly adopted as national Standards in Australia and elsewhere, including ISO 41001:2018 (a second edition is due for release in 2026), a management system standard against which FM systems can be certified.
Additionally, with the development of ISO/TR 41019: 2024, "FM’s role in sustainability, resilience and adaptability", we are now better placed than ever to meet a range of SDG and ESG challenges. This presentation is for all Built Environment professionals interested in "Sustainable FM" and ready to make a real difference to our quality of life.
This presentation will cover:
• ISO/TC 267 background and the ISO 41000 series status, including ISO 41001:2018 FM Management System (and its 2026 revision).
• Defining FM and supporting the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles.
• Development of ISO/TR 41019: 2024 "FM’s role in sustainability, resilience and adaptability" and implications for FM across the SDGs and with the ESG principles.
• Consideration of FM's contribution to a more productive, sustainable and liveable Built Environment for all.
• Practical guidance on systems, models and steps towards achieving a "Sustainable FM" approach. This presentation is for all Built Environment professionals interested in "Sustainable FM" and ready to make a real difference to our quality of life.
