Facilities Management in Africa

Facilities Management in Africa positions FM as a strategic enabler of performance, delivering energy efficiency, safety, and social value, while building the auditable evidence needed to access sustainable finance.Aligning ISO 41001, 55000 and 19650 with leading sustainability schemes and ESG-linked finance models, this book offers a portable, outcomes-driven methodology for turning policy into measurable, bankable results across housing, campuses, and public assets. Chapters guide readers through strategic governance, budgeting and green finance, operational resilience, and capability-building for data-literate teams, supported by sector playbooks for housing, university estates, and multi-tenant assets, and a practical 180-day implementation roadmap. Drawing on case studies from Africa and comparable global markets, the book highlights globally transferable lessons for improving asset performance, resilience and long-term value.Facilities Management in Africa is essential reading for FM practitioners, asset managers, policymakers, and financial institutions seeking to convert standards into investable, sustainable infrastructure.
