The FM Industry Awards for Excellence are presented by the Facility Management Association of Australia. They recognise leadership and innovation in the management, operation and maintenance of Australia’s built environment.
This year Integrated Technical Management have been recognised with the FM Industry Award for Excellence in Government/Special Purpose Facilities for Critical Data Centres Infrastructure Facility Management for ANZ Bank. The award nomination focused on the innovative process applied to the development and successful implementation of an independently certified AS/NZS ISO 9001 Quality Management Framework.
Since implementation there has been greatly increased alignment and operational efficiencies between ITM and ANZ resulting in a step change; providing greater value, systems reliability and efficiencies. This enabled ITM to deliver benchmark outcomes in the unprecedented COVID environment without the need for additional resources or expense.
The ANZ Data Centre team have stated that the vital role played by the new ITM Quality Management Framework in infrastructure facility management is viewed as indisputable.
