FORUM FACILITY
is a unique gathering in Italy, designed to be a knowledge incubator and an opportunity accelerator for the integrated services sector through networking, one-on-one discussions, and training sessions. An occasion where professionals, companies, startups, and public and private clients can collaboratively redefine the boundaries of the new social habitat within a global context increasingly attentive to sustainability issues.
The role of facility management is to tackle, within a process of epochal transition, a difficult yet necessary challenge. This commitment primarily focuses on the development and implementation of new sustainable technological solutions.
The objective of this new edition of Forum Facility is to share, with the key players in the services sector, the vision of a highly probable future in which the demand for efficiency, productivity, and safety converges with the realities of constant global demographic acceleration and the remarkable expansion of built space. It is a scenario as exciting as it is unsettling, one that will define the scale and boundaries of a new market, unprecedented in many respects for its size and complexity, which we will need to manage with new tools.
The transition from a “Labour Intensive” to a “Capital Intensive” production sector will require significant investments and new skills. Consider what has happened over the last 50 years in agriculture, where a meticulous process of integrated design, coupled with the targeted application of chemistry, physics, and precise planning, has quadrupled global agricultural production while reducing the average labor cost to around 20% of the total production value, and within a range of 15% to 30%. In the integrated services sector, particularly in cleaning services, the average labor cost as a percentage of production value stands at approximately 80%.
We will address the theme of “Integrated Design” in the construction of new buildings and the regeneration of existing ones, starting from the deliberate combination of four key actions: Designing, Building, Caring, and Preventing.
Co-Located with SAIE
The decision to hold Forum Facility alongside SAIE stems from a shared vision among the organizers: to create a new and meaningful dialogue between those who design and construct buildings and those who ensure their functionality, safety, hygiene, and long-term performance.
The lifecycle of a building extends far beyond design, construction, and demolition. It evolves over time through management, maintenance, and the delivery of increasingly sophisticated and strategic integrated services. Bringing these two worlds together promotes a systemic approach to the built environment—one that generates value, operational efficiency, and both economic and environmental sustainability.
Being held concurrently with SAIE gives participants the opportunity to broaden their perspective, develop new business relationships, and contribute to a shared vision of the built environment—one in which efficiency, sustainability, and innovation are embedded from the earliest stages of design.
