On behalf of the Board and Executive, I trust you had a well-earned break and have returned refreshed for what will no doubt be another busy year for us all.<br /><br />In early January, we heard the very sad news that Maurie Pawsey AOM, aged 95, passed peacefully in his sleep on Saturday 30 December 2023 in his hometown of Alexandra, surrounded by his loving family. Many of you will know that TEFMA’s premier award is named after Maurie, who was one of the founders of what we now know as TEFMA, and served as its inaugural President. <br /><br />Maurie worked at the University of Melbourne between 1964-1990, having received the University’s Gold Medal Award for his work on the 1970 master plan and an award for his outstanding achievements during his career at the University of Melbourne. In 1972, Maurie became the first head of what was then Property & Buildings. Maurie implemented the Energy Management Program (called Kill-a-watt) in 1979 and in 1985 he worked with the Australian Vice Chancellors Committee to determine the threshold maintenance spend of 1-1.5% ARV that we still reference today as being the standard for good maintenance practice. Maurie was also instrumental in setting up Unimutual and he built the first computer lab at the University of Melbourne in the Thomas Cherry Building. TEFMA sent flowers on behalf of all TEFMA members to Maurie’s funeral held in Alexandra on the 8th January 2024. Vale Maurie Pawsey, OAM.<br /><br /><span style="color:#ef592b"><strong>TEFMA 2022 Benchmark Insights Webinar – Monday 26 February 2024</strong></span><br />TEFMA’s Education Services Committee has scheduled a webinar to provide the highlights of the 2022 TEFMA Benchmark Insights Publication. Johanna Trickett from ARUP will present the webinar, which I am sure will be as popular as last year’s presentation. If you missed the December newsletter, the TEFMA 2022 Benchmark Insights Report can be found <a href="https://tefma.crowdstack.io/resource/tefma-2022-benchmark-insights-publication-accessible-pdf-pdf" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:underline;color:#24abe2" rel="noopener">here</a>, which gives insight into what the webinar will cover. You can register for the webinar <a href="https://www.tefma.com/webinars" target="_blank" style="text-decoration:underline;color:#24abe2" rel="noopener">here</a>. As at early February, we have 176 registrations!</p><p style="margin:0;text-align:justify;mso-line-height-alt:14.399999999999999px"><br /><br /><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>Things to look out for in 2024!</strong></span></p><p style="margin:0;text-align:justify;mso-line-height-alt:14.399999999999999px"> </p><ul style="line-height:1.2;mso-line-height-alt:16.8px"><li style="text-align:justify">TEFMA will again be holding the Directors Forum in June in Adelaide.

Also, a big thank you to our existing Business Partners for the continued support - you are crucial in bringing relevant services to the TEFMA membership.<br /><br />Can I also remind all members to take the time to jump online and view the TEFMA Community portal with the aim to foster a culture of collaboration through sharing and engaging with the resources available in the library. The information is intended to generate discussion, build relationships with peers and learn from one another. I am encouraged by the level of collaboration to date and it is a great resource, particularly for new members to the sector, to engage and assist with the daily life of practitioners responsible for all matters property, estate and facilities management related.<br /><br />Lastly, our Secretariat will be emailing all Institutional Members a spreadsheet with names of members currently held in our database, with instructions on how to update member listings to ensure accuracy in our systems. We appreciate all assistance in this regard.</p></div></div></td></tr></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><table class="row row-5" align="center" width="100%" border="0"
