The journey of the IFM Community began as Intelligence for Maintenance. We believed (and still do!) in the power of intelligent technology to address the complex challenges of the facilities management industry, with a strong focus on maintenance management as the cornerstone of operational efficiency.
Over time, as our community grew and the industry evolved, it became clear that our mission extended far beyond maintenance alone.
Embracing a broader vision
Today, we are proud to update the IFM to Inside Facilities Management, a name that reflects our expanded focus on every facet of the FM industry — from strategic planning to daily operations, asset management to supplier relationships, compliance to procurement, people to places to processes.
It’s no longer just about intelligence; it’s about being on the inside, sharing knowledge, and building a future where every aspect of facilities management is optimised and interconnected.
A community for collaboration
Inside Facilities Management is built on the belief that the power of community, collaboration and shared wisdom is the path to innovation, productivity, and service excellence. By bringing together diverse voices and experiences within the industry, we foster a space where innovation thrives and challenges are met with collective expertise.
Shaping the future of FM, together
The IFM Community is a platform for growth, learning, and transformation. Whether your goal is developing new strategies, driving operational excellence, or fostering a culture of continuous improvement, Inside Facilities Management is here to support and inspire you every step of the way.
