Their mis­sion: always be on the cut­ting edge of new prod­ucts, observe and rec­og­nize trends, have solu­tions ready before the prob­lem is even evi­dent, ana­lyze mar­kets, and check how these can be devel­oped by a sub­group or collaboratively.

The Corporate Facil­i­ty Man­age­ment team has a broad foun­da­tion and tack­les a wide range of issues.
