Applied Facilities Management for the Hospitality Industry is designed to provide the reader with a practical approach to understanding the myriad of activities and responsibilities involved in managing the physical facets of a hospitality enterprise. It presents a real world analysis of the concerns, issues, and some of the practices used by facilities managers in the profitable support of hospitality operations.
Written in clear terms and using a common-sense approach to facilities management, this book is easy to read and understand. It attempts to reduce complex issues into everyday logic to which the average student can quickly relate. The author presents management tools and systems that he has actually developed and used in the management of large buildings and systems. Using his own real-life experience in both the facilities and construction management of modern buildings and campuses, Mr. Edwards presents this subject in a “tell it like it is” manner that will enable the student to not only understand the concepts but also be prepared to use them to deal with real world facilities issues in the hospitality industry.
