The 23 ESG Criteria for Sustainable FM
The report is a guide for FM providers, FM Teams and Property teams to understand the definition of each criteria and how it relates to sustainability in the built environment; how each criteria affects the role of the FM; what FM can do to manage each criteria; how each criteria interlink with other sustainability criteria; and what should sustainable FM leaders be achieving according to the SFMI scoring assessment.
We update the criteria report every year before assessments, to ensure that criteria remain relevant, and take into consideration any developments (eg. regulatory, COVID-19) . We aim to write the report clearly so that it can be used as a guide for those on their sustainability journey. We also make sure we highlight and discuss Leadership attributes.
