Risk and the Facilities Manager

Abstract

The facilities manager should avoid dealing with risks in an arbitrary way. Analysis, realism, innovation are all required. To recognize, evaluate and adjust to problems, make a choice and provide follow‐up are all aspects which must be addressed, though the facilities manager inevitably errs on the side of caution and falls into the risk‐aversion category. Concludes that it is most important for the facilities manager to get involved at the formative stage of a project.
