Steve Georgoulis MS, CFM, SFP, Past President of the Greater Phoenix Chapter of IFMA
Steve is currently the Director of Facilities and Physical Security for TriWest HealthCare Alliance which is headquartered in Phoenix, AZ. TriWest provides support to our veterans throughout the western states and Hawaii. As a veteran himself, Steve is very proud of the important assistance that his company is able to provide to our deserving veterans.

Steve has been involved with Facilities Management for more than 40 years having worked as a Regional Manager for a Fortune 50 computer company with more than 3 million square feet of space. He has also worked in Europe as a Facilities and Project Manager with sites and projects covering most of the European continent.

His 19 year professional association with IFMA (International Facilities Management Association) has provided Steve with a vast network of like-minded Facilities professionals who generously share their knowledge and ideas.  Over the years, many of these FMs have become close friends.

Steve has dedicated a great deal of his time and energy promoting the need to establish Facilities Management degree programs across the country to ensure that we have a continuous pipeline of educated future FMs to backfill the current population of Facility Managers who will be aging out of the profession over the next 15-20 years. As a result of his and many others from the Phoenix Chapter, a Master’s degree program with a focus on Facilities Management was established at Arizona State University.

Steve was honored to serve a President of the Greater Phoenix Chapter of IFMA from 2015-2017.

Although he has lived in Arizona for many years, he still has a soft spot for his home state sports teams. Especially, the Red Sox and Patriots!
