Birdie Brigade

The Birdie Brigade plans and promotes one of the few annual "can't miss" events in Madison.  This golf outing takes place in July and the weather is always perfect! 

Lunch Bunch

Lunch Bunch is the team responsible for the monthly lunch meetings, which are always the third Tuesday of the month at various locations around the Madison area. Our responsibilities include confirming with Programs & Tours the needs of the speaker for the month and working with the venue provider on accommodation of any special needs. Our team members check in all attendees, including members and guests, and collect the lunch fees. We introduce any guests to Member Squad for a formal IFMA Madison welcome and to provide guests with answers to any questions they might have.

Member Squad

Member Squad (Membership Committee) strives to increase overall membership in the chapter while increasing FM professional memberships and involvement.  

Member Squad recently initiated IFMA Connect, a new member mentorship program that shows new members how to get the most out of their membership.

News Crew

The News Crew (Communications Committee) provides the chapter with communication from leadership, member/committee news, educational opportunities, and events.

Professional Development

Led by facility managers, this committee is committed to advancing professional development across the industry through peer learning and hands-on skills training.

The team will coordinate at least two FM-focused roundtable discussions each year, identifying timely topics and crafting moderator questions. Additionally, the committee will plan and deliver trade skill-building sessions for maintenance teams by identifying training needs and collaborating with vendors to host, sponsor, and deliver instruction. Working closely with WAM, the committee will promote all offerings, recruit sponsors, and engage members to ensure broad participation and value across the FM community.

Programs & Tours

The Show and Go Committee provides monthly programs and tours that promote the 9 core competencies as determined by the International Facility Management Association.  We utilize members and outside experts to present programs and arrange for evening or weekend tours of facilities in the Madison area, and occasionally beyond. The tours are educational in that they show aspects of the facilities that are not evident to the casual visitor.

Sponsorship Task Force

Sponsorship Task Force holds an annual sponsorship drive every January through March to give local businesses an opportunity to support IFMA Madison and promote their services.
