Let us start off with the definition; “Facilities management (FM) is the integrated management of the work environment and supporting services of an organisation to provide an environment that enables the business to achieve its primary objective.”

At a corporate level FM enables the delivery of strategic and operational objectives; whilst on an operational level FM provides a safe and efficient working environment. FM enables great first impressions for your clients and peace of mind for your employees – thus making it not just for big business, but rather for all business. FM provides four key benefits for your business.

Driving Efficiency

Your business works best when you, and your colleagues, can concentrate on doing your job. Appointing one company for all of your facilities management needs allows you to redirect essential resources from non-core areas of your business, to core activities. This drives efficiency and productivity, improving customer satisfaction and drives the business forward. Furthermore, having a dedicated team working collaboratively on the management of your facilities not only improves productivity, but also ensures a consistent standard is maintained across all your service needs.

Asset Maintenance

One of the biggest advantages of facilities management is the maintenance of business assets including buildings, spaces and equipment. When managed effectively businesses are able to realise the full worth of resources because of the care given to maintain them, driving down asset replacement and frequent expenditure. A professional facilities management company will be able to offer a complete service for at least 20% cheaper than it costs the company.

Ensures Health & Safety Requirements are met

There are various statutory requirements pertaining to occupational health and safety as prescribed by the Department of Labour. These provide a framework of safety for persons in a work place. A professional facilities management entity will ensure that these requirements are met delivering a safe environment for your employees.

Expert Knowledge

Having a team of skilled and experienced professionals on hand to take care of your premises will ensure that every task is carried out safely, seamlessly on time and in the best manner possible. This is important given the value of time to any institution. You can also take advantage of being supported by a team who is constantly reviewing the latest industry best practices, regulations and technological innovations to ensure that you are always ahead.

With 10 years professional experience in end-to-end facilities management, it is only befitting that I recommend my company as a professional partner for creating enjoyable spaces conducive for efficient business operations. The LNL Group provides specialised facilities management services to both large and small businesses, tailored for individual customer needs, while employing best industry practice.

“Generational businesses are built as a result of employing good and sustainable business practices.”

This is the ethos by which Lerato Nxumalo, a young and dynamic entrepreneur, fosters growth in her thriving multi-million rand venture.

Written originally  for Fin24

Nxumalo started her career in the mining industry as a process engineer after obtaining an MBA from the University of Stellenbosch Business School. She completed her undergraduate with a Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering. Though the technical qualifications empowered her to enter any market, it was the barriers to entry of vegetation management that enticed her to make a mark in the male-dominated industry. “I wanted to make a difference in the sector, and appreciated the challenge to rise to the occasion.” Her upbringing in a household of entrepreneurs gave her the confidence to aspire to greatness. It also gave her a strong sense of social responsibility which her Christian faith caused further impetus towards. “Entrepreneurship and leadership is a call to serve others, my goals as an entrepreneur can therefore not only be economic.” 

“Every leader should measure themselves by the impact they made in the lives of others. When people are empowered growth is inevitable.” It is this empowerment that Nxumalo finds rewarding, and the support of her family that she finds inspiring. “I am grateful for my husband who believes in me and my vision. My children inspire me to be the best that I can be and to build a legacy our family will be proud of.”
