Our annual round-up of the key events in UK facilities management over the past 12 months is online now.
i-FM has published its latest Trends & Opportunities Report, providing a unique look at major events in the marketplace over the past year, their impact on the industry and how they, and events in the wider environment, are shaping FM for the future.
It's been a positive year for the FM industry: optimism remains the theme, buoyed by market research, a long string of contract wins and a few notable M&A deals, all in the context of a generally improving economy.
It's been another tough year for many in the FM industry; but there's been a definite feeling in recent weeks and months that things are picking up. Tough or not, it's been another busy year.
2011 was in many ways a year to forget, or at best, perhaps a year of transition to better days ahead.

This is the third in a series of reviews that capture some of the major stories we’ve reported over the 25 years since the launch of i-FM.
Read here the most-read article on i-FM in each of our 25 years.
As always in UK FM, it’s been another busy year. And another in which the industry has needed to demonstrate its reputation for resilience.
Another busy year for the FM sector – still plenty of M&A activity, debate around the future of work and the workplace, new tech applications, new contracts won.
It's been another memorable year, at the risk of understating the challenges...and in some cases, the opportunities too.
This was a year that started like any other, with reports of contract wins, business changes, people moves, as well as the familiar big themes in the marketplace: competition, sustainability, workplace trends.
The key themes of the year are clear: the nature of work, climate change & environmental responsibility, wellness & responsible business; plus the 'normal' challenges of FM, such as efficiency, effectiveness, innovation and professionalism.
Another busy 12 months for UK FM, this time marked by extremes: from the positive news of innovations, contract wins, growth and acquisitions to the negative, with the worst of that being the stunning collapse of Carillion at the beginning of the year.
As always in UK FM, it's been a busy year. It has also been a year notable for its mixed messages, with many service providers reporting growth but a significant number of others, including some of the biggest in the business, reporting problems.
It's been a busy year, with the usual mix of contract wins, senior appointments and new ventures. A typical year in UK FM. But it's also been a period of uncertainty, with the effects of previous events lingering, plus some new ones coming through.
News itself is a pretty good barometer of marketplace confidence and activity. The big stories were well covered: this year ranging from hold-over recession impacts and austerity policies to the general election and the future of Europe.
Things occasionally go quiet in FM, but never for long. It's been another busy and interesting year: and we've tried to capture the highlights here.
