AUDE’s members manage all aspects of managing, planning, constructing, and maintaining all types of accommodation for higher education Institutions in the United Kingdom. Though arrangements vary between institutions, most Directors of Estates are also involved in managing a wider range of services including cleaning, security, grounds maintenance, space planning and management, car parking and traffic, and, in some institutions, services such as catering, conference and sports facilities, insurance, furniture and equipment, and printing.

HEFMA – The Higher Education Facilities Management Association of Southern Africa

The Higher Education Facility Management Association of Southern Africa was developed from TIMCON: The Tertiary Institutes Maintenance Conference, which was established to serve as an annual forum for the mutual discussion and education of Maintenance and Facility Managers at the higher education institutions in Southern Africa. The need to develop this organization to a more permanent association for the benefit of the Facility Managers of the higher education institutions of the Southern African countries led to the establishment of HEFMA in 2000.
