HEFMA:
The Higher Education Facility Management Association of
Southern Africa has developed from TIMCON: The Tertiary
Institutes Maintenance Conference, which was established to
serve as an annual forum for the mutual discussion and education
of Maintenance and Facility Managers at the higher education
institutions in South Africa. The need to develop this
institution to a more permanent association for the benefit of
the Facility Managers of the higher education institutions of
the Southern African countries lead to the establishment of HEFMA
in 2000

The HEFMA benchmark reports

annual benchmarking reports in PDF format. The year 2005
saw inaugural HEFMA 2004 Benchmarking Report. This report is the
culmination of a significant team effort between HEFMA and TEFMA
(the Tertiary Education Facilities Management Association from
Australasia). Our TEFMA colleagues truly went the extra mile to
make this report possible. These reports concentrated on the
total operational costs of buildings by benchmarking five operational areas, namely
building maintenance, grounds maintenance, cleaning and waste
management, energy and security.

reports, you
