The site provides facility management news and resources and supports management of the entire building lifecycle, from architecture, construction and relocation projects to maintenance, operations, engineering and renovations, and supports FM and related professionals in the office, education, healthcare, manufacturing, government and additional commercial sectors.
FMLink features over 100 FM topics and provides easy topic-centric navigation. Articles appear under building type, and deal with all aspects of building systems, interiors, maintenance and operations, planning, safety and health, software and technology, and sustainability.
