  • 9/2 Smarter Maintenance, Less Chaos

    September 2, 2026


    Facility teams are being asked to do more with less—managing growing portfolios, aging equipment and rising compliance demands with limited staff and fragmented knowledge. When equipment fails, the impact goes far beyond the repair, creating operational disruptions, tenant issues and unplanned capital decisions.


    This webinar explores how maintenance and asset management software can help teams shift from reactive to proactive operations across both HVAC and non-HVAC assets. Through a live demo and customer examples, attendees will see how connected asset data, streamlined work order management, and complete service history can improve visibility, reduce manual effort and support smarter maintenance and replacement decisions.

  • 9/16 AI, Cybersecurity and the Future of Smart Buildings

    September 16, 2026


    As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into building operations, organizations have new opportunities to enhance efficiency, improve occupant experiences, and make more informed decisions.


    At the same time, the continued evolution of connected technologies is encouraging facility, operations, and technology leaders to think strategically about cybersecurity, governance, and resilience. As smart buildings become more intelligent, success depends on aligning innovation with sound security practices.


    Join IFMA and Johnson Controls for a forward-looking discussion on how AI and cybersecurity are shaping the future of the built environment. Industry experts will explore how organizations can confidently adopt emerging technologies while supporting operational excellence, business continuity, and long-term resilience

  • 9/16 The Missing Connection in Your Maintenance Strategy

    September 16, 2026


    What do you do if your maintenance program is meeting its targets but still failing to protect the outcomes that matter most?


    Facilities teams and outsourced service providers complete thousands of tasks, yet response times, completed schedules and closed work orders do not always reveal whether maintenance is keeping essential spaces available, reducing disruption or managing risk. Join this webinar to discover how objective-based maintenance creates a clearer connection between business priorities and everyday maintenance decisions.


    We will explore how shared objectives, clear decision boundaries and connected information can help both sides direct resources towards what matters most, give frontline teams the context to make better decisions and measure success by the results achieved, not simply the work completed.


    You will leave with a practical framework for identifying where business goals, maintenance priorities, field execution and performance measures have become disconnected, and where to begin strengthening those connections.

NJ IFMA Women in Facility Management Had a Blast at the NJ Hall of Fame! On March 18, NJ IFMA Women in Facility Management had an unforgettable time at the New Jersey Hall of Fame, located in the iconic American Dream Mall. A weekday visit from 4 to 6 PM turned out to be the perfect time to explore this hidden gem, and the incredibly helpful staff ensured we made the most of our experience. From the moment we arrived, we immersed ourselves in the exhibits, celebrating the remarkable achievements of New Jersey’s finest. Cindi and Lisa even got the chance to sing along with Gloria Gaynor, while the whole group took a thrilling trip as we "flew to the moon" and interviewed some of our favorite NJ heroes. Before heading out, we captured fun memories at the interactive green screen selfie station, posing with our favorite inductees and taking home a souvenir photo. After our visit, we enjoyed a delicious bite to eat and strolled through the mall’s expansion, making the most of another fantastic opportunity for casual networking and getting to know each other better. It was truly a night to remember—great company, great fun, and an inspiring tribute to the legacy of New Jersey’s legends!

joanne gerow is reflecting on a decade of commitment
By NJ IFMA March 21, 2024
After ten years of supporting our chapter including five Executive Committees with multiple personalities, Joanne Gerow decided it was time to retire. Joanne was the friendly face at the registration table for all the meetings and events and was everyone’s go to whether it was a question on the chapter By-Laws, where to get catering for an upcoming meeting, or who took home the IFMA banner. We appreciated her input during Board Meetings. To say that we took her for granted is an understatement. We will miss you Joanne, and hope you will drop by a meeting or event as a valued guest. At the Winter Social this past December, we thanked Joanne for her years of service and several Past Presidents both in attendance and remote, expressed their appreciation to her.  Joanne has been instrumental in the transition to our new administrative support, Hassan Consultants, an association management company providing efficient and cost effective management services to trade and professional associations and societies. We are excited to work with their team and take advantage of what they can share from their experiences working with other associations. We hope that all chapter members and guests will be able to meet them over the next few months as the NJ IFMA schedule of events is growing again post COVID.
