An equipment-management device associated with at least one of multiple pieces of equipment in a building under management, the equipment-management device including a display-information generator, a touchscreen, and an action-control-information generator. The display-information generator generates display information on a management screen wherein icons are arranged, each of the icons including an outer frame and a first area set at one end along the major axis within the outer frame. The touchscreen displays the display information and receives an input of information relating to an operation performed on the management screen. Upon detecting that a slide operation performed on one of the icons of the management screen from the first area through a first slide-operation detecting line set inside the outer frame excluding the first area, the action-control-information generator generates action-control information that switches the power supply of the corresponding equipment on or off.
