INTRODUCTION
The Real Estate Industry Transformation Map (ITM), which was launched in 2018, seeks to transform the Facilities Management (FM) industry through leveraging technology and strengthening professionalism. One key strategy to transform the FM industry is to enhance its maintenance capabilities through smart FM. Smart FM refers to the integration of systems, processes, technologies and personnel to enhance the management of a building's facilities. By using smart FM and leveraging data analytics, predictive maintenance and smart technology solutions, we can raise productivity and efficiency, reduce labour intensity, and enhance service delivery and quality.
With the increasing demand for smart buildings, enhanced skillsets in Smart FM are required for personnel who are involved in the planning, design, construction and maintenance of such buildings. The Specialist Diploma in Smart Facilities Management (SDSFM) is designed to equip Built Environment professionals with the essential knowledge to plan and manage building operations and maintenance efficiently with the adoption of smart FM. It covers the principles, processes, operating models, technologies and applications of Smart FM. The programme is offered in a modular format.
