Design, Development and Lifecycle Management of Higher Education Assets
In a recent study conducted by the CEFC Market Report, buildings accounted for 65% of Australian universities fixed assets and amounted to $28 billion in reserve funds. However, the high cost to maintain and update buildings make these assets one of the most expensive expenditures in University budgets. This issue is compounded by rising student admittance and the high consumption of energy by hi-tech labs and research facilities that universities feel obliged to invest in.With solutions to this pressing issue in mind, IQPC is proud to host the inaugural Strategic Asset Management for Higher Education Conference in 2017. In the company of property, facility, infrastructure and asset managers we will be looking strategically at asset management to reduce their costs.
