There are 10 standing committees and at least three ad hoc subcommittees which are project based. BOMA committee members bring their expertise and passion for the industry and channel it into the resources, publications, professional development opportunities and direction for the organization. If there is a product, service or publication provided by BOMA, there is likely a committee behind it!
