The Strength of Strategic Partnerships in Educational Facilities Management

Educational facilities management leaders are constantly juggling the demands of budget planning and facility advancement. While they are expected to deliver optimal results, they are often stretched thin and lack the support of additional staff and advanced technology. In this challenging landscape, the right partner can make a world of difference. They can bring expertise in facilities management, provide valuable insights for intelligent budgeting and grant access to essential data and tools. With their support, leaders can effectively enhance and elevate the state of their educational facilities.

In a study commissioned by Gordian, Forrester Consulting surveyed 204 U.S. facilities planning and management decision-makers from K-12 school districts with 5,000 or more students first about facility management and improvement efforts and then about facility management and planning partnerships.
