The one major factor in facility management is maximizing the use of the facility by as many as possible within the community. This results in not only greater revenues but also a higher level of community engagement. Learn how to best grow your community engagement by fulfilling the potential of each facility at your disposal.
The second factor to keep in mind, especially in the design phase, is how to best cut operational costs. Considering the placement of the front desk, windows and doors, parking lots, restrooms, staff offices, and all additional amenities will play a role in lowering or raising your day-to-day costs.
The third factor to consider is the growing sense of establishing facilities for multi-use. Of course there are pros and cons to this strategy but with an overall goal to generate more inclusivity and use, offering several amenities from the same footprint will bode well for the future.
