In brief

What this company does

ABM Industries Incorporated operates through its subsidiaries as a provider of facility maintenance, engineering and infrastructure solutions. As of October 31, 2025, ABM employed approximately 113,000 employees, of whom approximately 51,000 were subject to various local collective bargaining agreements. ABM's reportable segments consist of Business & Industry, Manufacturing & Distribution, Education, Aviation, and Technical Solutions. B&I provides facility solutions, including janitorial and maintenance, facilities engineering, and parking and transportation management, to clients such as commercial real estate properties, corporate offices, sports and entertainment venues, and hospitals and non-acute healthcare facilities.

Two clients accounted for approximately 27% of the Aviation segment's revenues in 2025.

In 1985, it was incorporated in Delaware under the name American Building Maintenance Industries, Inc., as successor to the business originally founded in 1909, and in 1994 changed its name to ABM Industries Incorporated.
