Speaking on the announcement of the finalists, Chair of the Judges, Steve Gladwin said: “Over the past three years in my role as Chair of judges, I have been continually delighted to see so many names and companies reflected across all categories. It shows not only the depth and breadth of FM but uncovers the activities that FM professionals deliver to bring tangible benefits to the businesses they serve.
“What’s more we pride ourselves on the robustness, independence and scrutiny of our judging process, which was recognised this year with the win at the Association Excellence Awards for best Awards programme. It demonstrates the quality of the BIFM Awards, which are very competitive, and shows that it is a true achievement to be recognised as a finalist and an ultimate accolade to be recognised as a winner in them. Therefore I extend my congratulations to all of the entrants who have made finalist status across each category.
“We all passionately believe in the value of FM and these categories are designed to bring out exemplar FM practices and showcase the value it brings to business and society.”
The winners will be announced at the BIFM Awards ceremony which takes place on 10 October at the Grosvenor House Hotel on London’s Park Lane. Over 1,200 guests are expected to attend the ceremony; which is the highlight for many on the FM calendar.
In the run-up to the ceremony BIFM will be announcing further information on the people, teams, projects and organisations that are in contention for an award in 2016. Full details will be available on www.bifmawards.org. @BIFMAwards will also be carrying updates on the finalists and the ceremony.
