Abstract | This paper studies various interpretations of the concept 'facilities management' and offers the view that its emergence as a profession emphasising integrative and coordinating assets, activities and information is an economic response to new demand in terms of Ronald Coase’s theory of the firm, as re-interpreted by Steven Cheung, and applies this view to interpret some Hong Kong events that can be described as failures in facilities management. |
