Our association headquarters at 1 East Greenway Plaza in Houston, Texas, has served us well over the years as the nexus for our international operations. 
The IFMA Foundation's purpose is to provide greater resources and educational opportunities to facility management professionals and those who support the FM industry. 
Bricsnet offers the industry's most powerful and easy-to-use technology solutions for facility management and real estate operations.

Advocacy for Facility Management
IFMA is maintaining an aggressive issue monitoring and advocacy program in Washington, D.C. as part of our continued efforts to magnify the importance of the facility management professional.
The association’s advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill are dedicated to providing reliable information to decision makers on issues affecting the built environment, creating common sense solutions for energy efficient building initiatives and highlighting the importance of education and training in effective facility management.
IFMA has well-informed advocates in Washington, including staff and regular visits by the Board of Directors. However, the greatest resource IFMA can bring to bear is the experience and expertise of our nearly 20,000 members worldwide. As IFMA continues to expand our advocacy efforts, we strongly encourage our members to become involved.

Decisions made on Capitol Hill are increasingly influencing the FM profession, and it is critical that lawmakers get the information directly from those who will be affected by legislation. Please take some time to understand the issues IFMA is currently monitoring in Washington and reach out to help educate your elected officials.
IFMA is committed to working with public and private sector partners to provide reliable information to our nation’s leaders on issues affecting the built environment and investing in our nation’s infrastructure by updating our country’s existing building stock.
