Welcome to the 2026
Canadian Asset & Facility Conference! 

This year we're focusing on the decisions that matter most, how to manage aging assets, navigate supply chain uncertainty, and deliver more sustainable, high-performing buildings. Through practical sessions, you’ll explore how data and AI can strengthen capital planning, how organizations are adapting procurement strategies in a volatile market, and how leading teams are improving efficiency, resilience, and occupant outcomes. This is a conference built around real challenges, real solutions, and better decision-making.

Aging Assets, AI, and Better Capital Planning Decisions

As assets age and budgets tighten, organizations need better tools to support capital planning and justify investment decisions.

This session will explore how AI and data-driven insights can help facilities leaders determine when to repair versus replace assets, prioritize spending, and build stronger business cases that resonate with senior leadership and the C-suite.

Navigating a Volatile Supply Chain in an Uncertain Economy

In today’s unpredictable economic climate, supply chain volatility continues to create significant challenges for operations, budgets, and long-term planning.

This panel discussion will explore the growing risks organizations face, the impact of ongoing disruption, and how leaders are adapting procurement and operational strategies to manage uncertainty and maintain continuity.

Sustainable and Healthy Buildings: Why they Matter

In this session, attendees will hear directly from organizations as they share how they are approaching sustainability within their facilities, the challenges and opportunities they are navigating, and the practical steps they are taking to create more efficient, resilient, and environmentally responsible spaces.
