Post COVID-19: Alpha Mead Seeks Critical Discourse on Real Estate and Facilities Management Industry

On May 14, 2020, the expectation of Alpha Mead, one of the leading total real estate solutions companies in Nigeria, is that business leaders, public officials and professionals in the industry would join her in finding the right insights for smart decisions on how to manage people, places and technologies during and after pandemic period.

The day, which is one of the days earmarked for the celebration of World FM Day 2020, is being used by the company to discuss various issues and changes Coronavirus has brought to the industry in the last few months. The company expects participants and speakers to discuss the roles of people, places and technologies in value co-creation and co-sharing as Africa navigates the path back to economic prosperity.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has not just created an environmental emergency, it has put people productivity, business profitability and economic prosperity on the brink of a major crisis. All over the world, government and the private sector are working to contain the pandemic and restore the economy, businesses and people’s livelihood.

As the profession and business function that integrates people, place and process with the purpose of improving the quality of life of people, and the productivity of the core business, Facilities Management will play a major role in controlling and containing the COVID-19 pandemic, and returning economies and businesses to the path of sustainability.”

In his earlier submission on the impact of Coronavirus in the industry, Ukeme Peters, Head of Planning, Enterprise and Management System (PEMS) at Alpha Mead Group, says “The COVID -19 outbreak has affected lots of businesses and indeed it has affected Alpha Mead as well. However, this period provides us with the opportunity to test our innovations around processes, systems and technologies in a real-life scenario.”
