About: LCMB is a specialist building performance consultancy advising high-profile organisations on estates strategy, facilities management transformation, net zero delivery and major capital programmes. Our work helps universities, NHS organisations, commercial property owners and public sector clients improve how their buildings are operated, maintained and developed.
