First in the IFMA Foundation Sustainability How-To Guides Series.

However, the facility manager is faced with the challenge of ageing facilities that are much more costly and time consuming to make more energy efficient and sustainable. The purpose of this guide is to provide the facility manager with a roadmap for developing a sustainability program in existing buildings.
