Market Insights

The GCC Facility Management Market is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 8.2% during the forecast period, i.e., 2021-26. The market is driven primarily by the burgeoning focus of governments of GCC countries on infrastructural developments and the rapidly increasing number of construction activities owing to the booming travel & tourism across the region. In addition, with the increasing establishment of multinational corporations, especially across Saudi Arabia, the government is also actively supporting the education and real estate sector in line with Vision 2030, thereby driving the facility management market through 2026.

For instance, Middle East Facility Management Association (MEFMA) & Qatar Green Building Council (QGBC) established a Facility Management Interest Group to share best facility management practices among various service providers.

Besides, countries like Qatar are extensively promoting the construction activities to host the FIFA Cup 2022, thereby upgrading its infrastructure and fueling the demand for facility management services. More, countries in the GCC region are also focusing on adopting green building practices to reduce carbon emission and bring better energy efficiency to the facility & drive the market.

Furthermore, with the rapid technological advancements like Artificial Intelligence (AI) & the Internet of Things (IoT) in facility management, the demand for these services is further soaring across organizations for better building management & operational efficiency. Hence, the GCC facility Management Market is projected to witness lucrative growth opportunities in the coming years.

Impact of Covid-19 on the GCC Facility Management Market

The Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 had a decelerating effect on most industries across the GCC region, and the Facility Management Market was no exception. During the initial phase of the pandemic, the government of member countries imposed stringent movement restrictions & lockdowns to curb the virus spread. As a result, most companies had to shut and adopt the work-from-home trend.

With this, the demand for facility management services fell substantially, and the market observed massive losses amidst the crisis. However, when the Covid-19 cases were hiking, the government took immense help from the facility management service providers to facilitate the underlying services across containment zones, which helped the market sustain.

Later, with the gradually reducing cases, countries in the region began uplifting the lockdown and allowed the resumption of business operations, which fueled the requirement for facility management, as concerns associated with hygiene, safety, & cleanliness were mounting.

Needless to say, this opened up remunerative growth opportunities for the leading players in the market. Furthermore, the same trend is projected to prevail in the coming years owing to the growing prominence to integrate new work environment & sufficing employee needs at a facility
