❌ Myth: Facility managers don't add value to the organization. Some may perceive facility management as a cost center rather than a value-added function. ✅ Fact: Facility managers play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation of a facility, optimizing resource utilization, and creating a safe and productive environment for employees and visitors. Their expertise contributes to operational efficiency and cost savings.
