Purpose

To discern patterns of property and facilities management (FM) evolution of the offices of growth firms.

Design/methodology/approach

Statistical analysis with ten variables which are analysed through four perspectives (clusters, industrial sectors, age and size).

Findings

The result consists of characteristic features of three clusters labelled as “low”, “high” and “moderate” FM firms with a ubiquity from all major industry sectors. The studied population reveals that various industry sectors expose more significant differences of FM variables than age and size. However, age is a background factor for discerning the three clusters and it reveals to be the youngest cluster that has the most intense FM activities, which argues for linkage between rapid growth and FM.

Research limitations/implications

Relevant study for predefined Swedish growth firms.

Practical implications

Reveals linkage between faster growth and FM.

Originality/value

Survey empery is collected in a primary database of FM variables and analysed.
