Makinde and other facility management experts made the call at the 2020 Facilities Management Round-table conference.
Using the coronavirus pandemic as an example, he said technology had played a critical role in helping to manage people and restructure the environment globally, but facility management had played a critical role behind the scene. He said the state government had been having a running battle with space and that rather than take up the various offers for existing spaces to be adopted as isolation centres, his government had taken a different approach with considerations for the longer term.
“If we do not take these things into consideration, our strategies will fail. One of the things people have complained about in our management of the COVID-19 pandemic, is the enforcement of directives. But we know that social distancing is not innate to people. So rather than a hard stance, logic is guiding us to invest in sensitization and ensuring that people get the right incentives that will make them adhere to the guidelines.
