.what is facility management?

published on 03/17/2022

Armonia is a specialist in Facility Management, but what exactly does this term mean? 

 

 

It is the management of a set of services and facilities allowing the occupants of a building to work in the best conditions of comfort and also allowing the sustainability of the real estate asset.

 

The aim of facility management is to improve the performance of buildings and employees by offering them a working environment that meets their needs. To achieve this, Facility Management offers a wide range of services: building maintenance, cleaning, multi-technical maintenance, maintenance of green spaces, security, reception, switchboard, mail management, etc.

 

 

What are the advantages of Facility Management for companies?

 

First of all, it allows companies to refocus on their core business.

But that's not all! When Pierre-André Potts, Director of the FM Development Department at Armonia, was asked what Facility Management brings to companies, this was his answer: 

"In the face of work habits that have changed, FM allows companies to quickly provide their work environment with the right solutions, whether they are organisational or digital."

This is why Armonia, in partnership with GetGround, has developed the GetGround by Armonia application, to bring together in a single tool all the services offered to the occupants of a building.

 

 

In short, Facility Management is essential to the quality of the working environment and brings together many services leading to the well-being of the occupants of a site.

      In line with the Group's culture and values, we are confident in our ability to evolve and improve in order to offer all our clients a beneficial, long-lasting and caring working relationship.  

       

      We are committed from today to offer a better tomorrow, one that is more respectful of human rights. Armonia has defined its CSR strategy and Sustainable Development policy in order to assist its employees in their collective success and to be a real driving force for change in the FM service sector.

       

      We are proud of the diversity of our profiles and the diverse career paths of our talents.  

       

      This is why, since 2006, professional equality, solidarity and the continuous improvement of working conditions within our teams have been our major CSR focuses.

       

       

      CSR at the heart of our approach

      Our CSR commitments are based on three pillars: our employees, the environment and societal innovation. They are applied in a logic of progress, the power of "small steps". The aim is to continuously integrate CSR performance into our services, while respecting the sustainable development challenges specific to each of our stakeholders.

      Our employees are our strength. We believe in the importance of continuous training and expertise development for our 16,000 employees. 

      With more than 60% of our managers coming from internal mobility, we encourage our teams to train, reinvent themselves and show initiative in order to develop within Armonia or our subsidiaries.

      embodying the energy and enthusiasm of tomorrow

      Our employees define our DNA. We cultivate diversity and open-mindedness within our teams. We attach more importance to the profile and personality of our talents than to their academic background.

      At Armonia, professional equality, the fight against all forms of discrimination and respect for the work-life balance are part of the HR fundamentals we ensure professional equality.

      inspiring to offer a human adventure

      Our employees are our voice. We believe in continuous improvement as a driving force for performance.

      Because our talents are best placed to tell the story of who we are, we encourage exchanges between employees and potential new recruits. Our Ambassadors programme provides this dynamic, both externally and internally.
