Thomas Madritsch

Introduction

The Austrian Facility Management Industry and the Role of Professional Associations

The Austrian facility management industry provides jobs for around 200,000 people and contributes an added value of almost EUR 20 billion to the country’s gross domestic product.

The two professional associations Facility Management Austria (FMA) and International Facility Management Association Austria (IFMA) aim to bolster the spread and adoption of professional facility management services in the country.
