Group Managing Director of Alpha Mead, Femi Akintunde, has charged the executives of the International Facility Management Association, Nigeria (IFMAN),
This call was made during a courtesy call to the head office of Alpha Mead by IFMA executives recently.
Akintunde stated that the association has metamorphosed over the years and now needs to focus its attention on actions that would be of impact to the country.
“The IFMA should join the ranks of professional bodies that have added some measure of innovation to their activities. One such body is the Nigerian Society of Engineers and its National Infrastructure Scorecard it develops on an annual basis to assess the state of infrastructure as it pertains to usability, with the report presented to the presidency.
“I know that IFMA has the right personnel and technical competence to embark on a strategic task on this level and I urge you to take it into consideration,” he said.
President of the association, Segun Adebayo, acknowledged the leadership position that Alpha Mead occupies in the sector and the association and reaffirmed some of the strategic initiatives that the body has embarked on to strengthen FM practice nationally.
“I want to commend the resilience and impact of the organization on the FM industry. Also, I must state that my administration is driven by passion, and development in Facility Management is a marathon, not a sprint.”
