Zusammenfassung: Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to identify FM client value perceptions as well as the key drivers of this B2B relationship. Design/methodology/approach: A literature search on relationship lifecycle and customer value is used to design semi-structured, in-depth group interviews with three large client organizations and their respective FM suppliers. Findings: Three key phases of a FM relationship lifecycle are identified and analysed. In addition, main drivers of relationship value along these different stages are characterized. These include hard and soft drivers during the initiation stage as well as pull-and-push drivers during the enhancement stage. Relationship dissolution can be triggered by problem-related or strategy-related drivers. Along the relationship lifecycle, FM customers perceive varying degrees of trust and control toward the supplier. Originality/value: The research provides a case study of how client value perception varies along the relationship lifecycle stages and which drivers are responsible for this. The findings highlight specific areas where clients’ trust and control perceptions vary. FM providers need to create client loyalty by managing relationships professionally, rather than merely generating new clients. Thus, providers should focus on clients’ value perception, rather than purely delivering the contract.
