Facilities management is the activities that concern about people, place and process. It is an action and process by which an organization ensures that the building, its system and services support all the operation of the organization in order to achieve the organization's strategic objectives and business goal. Conventional management is more focus on the technical where it concern with fabric and services within the building organization and building under services. The methodology that used to gain the information is from the research on primary and secondary data. From the interview session, the differences between both managements are identified. The functions of facilities management are more focused on the management, technical and business goal.

As a conclusion, facilities management is a key to organization effectiveness and the answers to the issues related to the management. It has evolved to deal with the complexities of buildings and their continual use. The scope of the discipline covers all aspects of property, environmental control, health and safety and support service.
