WORKSHOP AGENDA: Day 1
1.F M Futures: Business, People, Property and Information
Facility managers often face the dual challenge of reducing risk while in-creasing opportunities for the host organization. This has led to an increasingawareness of FM possibilities, from applying new business models to creatingnew ways of working.

2.Churn and Chargeback
Churn rate applied to FM describes the number of employees that movewithin a certain period. Space charging (chargeback) acts to ensure an eco-nomical use of existing property and requests for additional space by provid-ing incentives to facility managers to actively manage space and minimizedemand.
Key learning outcomes: In this session you will learn:-
• To review area measurement standards• How to determine the cost of occupying space• To apply effective management of churn within an organization utilizingboth “operational cost modelling” and “capital cost modelling”• To understand what works and what doesn’t work when applyingchargeback systems
3.Managing Change in an Increasingly Complex World
We now live in a world of rapid change that just keeps moving all the time.However, dealing with change on a reactive, case-by-case basis put speed,morale, and results at risk. Hence effective change-management demands afully integrated design and decision making facility management process.

•Provide an overview of facility management benchmarking•Give you the tools to measure your performance•Show how benchmarking can and is used to establish best practice•Conduct benchmarking projects to demonstrate how the process works•Understand the balanced scorecard in terms of strategic FM profiling
5.Building Life-cycle Costing
Life-cycle costing (LCC) when applied to buildings refers to “an economic as-sessment of competing design alternatives, considering all significant costs of ownership over the economic life of each alternative, expressed in equiva-lent dollars”. Typically these costs include capital costs; recurring costs (energy – maintenance – taxes); replacement costs; reconfiguration & renewal.
Key learning outcomes: This session on ‘life-cycle costing will:
•
Provide an understanding of the economics of compound interest, theconcept of present worth and demystify the equations of LCC
•
Review “risk & uncertainty” when applying LCC
•
Utilizing an Excel spreadsheet conduct ‘sensitivity testing’ for an energy management LCC project.

“I challenge you to ask how many CIOs know their electricity bill. They oftenwon’t know because facilities management receives that bill, even though IT plays a huge part in generating it.” His view is that by working together withother departments, it would become obvious that installing technology tocontrol electricity use would result in much lower consumption.
