Modern Facilities Management
Building and Facilities can range from a Professional Park to a multi-story building. Each type of facility although unique needs continual maintenance on unseen assets or from work requests from tenants. In addition, commercial buildings account for over 50% of all energy usage so making sure assets are properly maintained will help optimize energy efficiency as well as keep occupants happy and safer. With thousands of assets, the challenge for building and facility asset managers is to make sure the work order management process is automated and that the maintenance process is as organized as possible. EAM-CMMS software is one of the best tools facility managers can have at their disposal.
