Growth Opportunities in the Spanish Facility Management Market

Strong Opportunities for Service Integration and Hard Services in Europe’s Fastest Growing FM Market

Spain is one of the smallest Facility Management (FM) markets in Europe on a per capita revenue basis. As FM awareness increases and outsourcing becomes more widely accepted, its growth will be the highest in all of Europe in all three delivery models (single-service, bundled service, and Integrated Facility Management or IFM). While soft-service FM has become well established in recent years, the next wave of growth will be significantly driven by increased outsourcing of hard services such as technical maintenance services (including operation and maintenance or O&M services for equipment such as heating, ventilation, and air conditioning or HVAC, electrical installations, and so on).This strong growth will be accompanied by an increasing need to innovate with both service delivery and technology deployment and the rate of Merger and Acquisition (M&A) activity will rise, as companies start to focus on service expansion, geographical growth, and economies of scale.
