What should be considered when developing a strategic facility management plan?

A strategic facility management plan should align with the organization’s business plan (Option A) to ensure that facility operations support overall business goals.

Why Option A is Correct?

Facility Management (FM) must be integrated with the organization’s objectives to enhance efficiency, productivity, and financial sustainability.

IFMA’s Leadership & Strategy Core Competency emphasizes that strategic facility planning must be in alignment with the organization’s future needs and direction.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect?

Option B (Reducing FM costs): Cost reduction is a factor, but not the main driver of strategic planning.

Option C (Obtaining a larger budget): A budget increase may help, but a strategic plan must first justify business alignment before funding is considered.
