Facility Management as a Concept to Support Real Estate Management

Summary/Abstract: The focus of the study is on contemporary concept of Facility Management (FM) that supports processes of management, especially real estate management. The study attempted to analyse the assumptions of standardization of real estate management within the FM concept. Analysis of the situation in the real estate market in Poland in 2013 showed the necessity of implementation of effective management, which concerns not only investment projects, but, particularly, the area of management of facilities and innovations, and taking measures aimed at increasing the value of real estate. The role and opportunities offered by certain contemporary methods of real estate management (benchmarking and outsourcing) have been discussed, particularly in terms of management of auxiliary processes. The study presented situation in the local construction sector and developer enterprises in Poland, particularly in terms of taking measures concerning formation of demand and customer preferences in the real estate market. The results obtained in the study were used to analyse situation in the market of real estate in Częstochowa, Poland, stimulated directly by tendencies observed in this local market and suggest the necessity of proper management of auxiliary processes, which will substantially contribute to improvement of enterprises’ operation.
