Facilities Management

Facilities Management Consulting

The importance of facility management is in operating and maintaining facilities to the highest level of efficiency, comfort, occupant safety, and purpose of each building / space.

Over time, a facilities management software solution can help drive down the cost of space, increase employee satisfaction, improve productivity, and maximize the potential of the real estate portfolio. It can control and improve the way you utilize space, but can also be leveraged not only for the Facility Managers, but for the entire organization.

Success Stories

Connecting AutoCAD and Revit with Space Management

CADD and FM:Systems partnered to provide space management capabilities to a large federal government agency by implementing an FM:Systems’ Integrated Workplace Management Software (Space Management Module) solution. This government agency has more than 50,000 employees and 5 million square feet of real estate. CADD assisted with drawing and model preparations as well as the installation and setup of the modules. The FM:Interact solution is providing bi-directional integration with the organization’s AutoCAD drawings and Revit models, allowing the agency to support their space management goals with AutoCAD and Revit across the entire portfolio. Moving forward, every space is accountable, and the one centralized location makes it possible for facility professionals, department liaisons and executive management to have visibility into space and occupancy.
