    The Facility Manager's Guide to Finance and Budgeting

     
    How facilities managers can help the bottom line.
    1/26/2004
    These days, facilities managers are responsible for more than just the daily operations of their manufacturing and distribution plants. A keen eye to the numbers is essential for most companies to succeed, and managers can make valuable contributions to this effort. By honing budgeting, planning, and accounting skills, and keeping up with the trends in financial management, facilities managers can become a more fully integrated part of their organization's overall financial picture. The authors educate readers by organizing chapters into an easy-to-read format presenting topics such as annual and capital budgeting, cost controls, and project accounting. As experienced facilities managers themselves, Cotts and Rondeu also offer their insights into how communications and leadership have a significant impact on operations.
