–

To identify a distinctive knowledge-base of facilities management (FM) based on a conceptual framework of the market-and-firm dichotomy.

Design/methodology/approach –

By reviewing literatures in classical management and project management, the evolution of the management theories and FM discipline highlights the identity of FM.

Findings –

Recognize the lack a distinctive knowledge-base in FM discipline. This paper puts forward a conceptual link among FM, strategic management and project management from a market-firm perspective. Four strategic roles of FM are identified for future research, namely the sourcing of services, the sourcing of workspace, the sourcing of funds from infrastructure facilities; and the sourcing of performance.

Research limitations/implications –

This conceptual framework paves the road to establish a distinctive knowledge-base of FM.

Practical implications –

To revamp the concepts of FM and to make the discipline sustainable.

Originality/value –

To establish an identity of FM and to channel resources to some research domains.
