Public opportunities - 2004 - Premises and Facilities Management April 2004, 38-39(2) .

Examines some of the current issues facing the public sector Facilities Management (FM) market in the UK. Points out that this market saw a steady rise in its activities in the last year while the corporate FM sector has seen a fall. These good prospects are likely to continue with millions of pounds being allocated to PFI/PPP projects over the coming years. Compulsory competitive tendering policies and the introduction of best value practices are helping to increase social diversity and inclusion and help restructuring in local government. Also notes that public sector organisations have become very forward thinking with frequent and effective adoption of the best practices in the private sector.
