The British Institute of Facilities Management (BIFM) and the Facilities Management Association (FMA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which they say will help both organisations provide enhanced services to their members, and “raise the profile of facilities management, through cooperation and collaboration”.
Specifically, BIFM and FMA have agreed to “support each other’s mission”, and cooperate on events, communication, information gathering, and market research. The organisations emphasise they have no current plans to merge.
