Sept. 19, 2011: Outsourcing of Facilities Management Services Continues to Increase
NEW YORK and LONDON — Nearly all buyers currently outsourcing facilities management services expect to maintain or increase outsourcing in the short to medium term, according to the inaugural KPMG 2011 global real estate and facilities management outsourcing pulse survey.
The KPMG survey polled both users of outsourcing and service providers, with the majority operating in the United States and approximately 30 percent operating globally or in the Europe and Asia Pacific regions. In the near term, buyers were more bullish than service providers about the projected increase in outsourcing.
