Germany is the second-largest facility management (FM) market in Europe (after the United Kingdom) and has been one of the fastest-growing markets. Although its revenue growth has stuttered recently, it will present strong opportunities for incumbent suppliers and attract new entrants from outside the country.
Single-service delivery models dominate the German FM market (about 61% of revenue), but IFM and bundled services have considerably better growth prospects until 2030. Integrated FM will have a compound annual growth rate of 7.2% and increase its share from 12.7% of FM revenue in 2024 to 15.3% in 2030.
Despite the market’s size and maturity, the private sector dominates FM demand in Germany. The lack of momentum and the common use of in-house service delivery models in the public sector have limited the sector’s interest in FM. The German FM market’s strong focus on cost has held back innovation and resulted in a market in which FM services are still somewhat basic in comparison to what is available in, for example, the Nordics, the United Kingdom, or the Netherlands.
