23. Benchmarking

25. HE Sector Issues • TEFMA forming closer links to Universities Australia • Federally – increase student enrolments from lower socio-economic areas and 45% Aussies to have an UG degree by 2020/5 • International students continue to be a growth area, but recent community incidents having an impact • EIF (less on backlog funding!!) • Australia’s GFC related stimulus package has impacted

26. HE Sector Issues • Opportunities to provide sector wide data with some credible basis, e.g. • Environmental performance (energy, water carbon) • Space Management – improve utilisation • Backlog liabilities • Security Incidents • Planning to expand the range of data and further validate methodology used

27. Participation in Industry Advisory Panels GREEN STAR ‘EXISTING BUILDING’S PROJECT Stakeholder Reference Group (SRG)

28. Sustainability • TEFMA Benchmark • Aust 2nd after US on CO2 emission per capita • Buildings will account for 18% of Australia’s greenhouse emissions in 2010- reported by Climate works Australia • Looking to expand on our existing benchmarks, and align with NGERS – 100Tj and 125K t CO2-e – sliding scale going forward* • Looking at potential to create a ‘sustainability star rating’ in the Good Universities Guide * NGER - National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting

29. Sustainability Scorecard Objectives • Campus sustainability is more than the operational activities and services managed by Facilities and Services. Consequently, the proposed scorecard will measure, not only the carbon emissions, water consumption and waste/recycling, it will: • Weigh the governance and policy infrastructure established to support a sustainable approach • Engagement with the community, including collaborations with students and academics. • Funding in environmental programs/initiatives

30. Sustainability Scorecard Objectives • Staff and student awareness/education programs/initiatives • Broader environmental management issues, such as ecological protection (bio diversity); landscape design; well being programs promoting alternative transport; “competitions” to promote campus sustainability; engagement in community events (such as Clean up Australia Day and Earth Hour)

31. The key focus for the TEFMA board in 2011 will be to embed the opportunities for improvement by: • putting in place a place a sustainable administrative & financial support thus allowing the board to get out of the boiler room and focus on the strategic issues facing FM in the sector. • improved delivery of services the membership.(building on the new web environment) • continuing to strengthen the Benchmark survey with the addition of appropriate sustainability measures. • through greater participation in industry advisory panels. • enhancing collaboration with our strategic partners.
