KEY CAFM BENEFITS
CAFM, or Computer Aided Facilities Management software, has come on in leaps and bounds in recent years; enabling Estates and Facilities Managers, as well as their teams and contractors, to manage their property and work efficiently and more easily. Key features you should now be benefiting from with your CAFM solutions should include the following:
REACTIVE ESTATES HELPDESK
Manging fault reporting and work requests can be complex, but a good CAFM solution can make this simple. With real time updates, monitor what is happening at every stage of works, including the costs; even answering queries as they arise.
SEMI-AUTOMATED HELPDESK
Semi-automated Helpdesks are now standard; with end users logging their faults and issues themselves, freeing up your helpdesk teams to allocate jobs and solve issues rather than simply manning telephones.
STRAIGHTFORWARD PPM
Planned Preventative Maintenance tasks, as well as scheduled testing, can be managed simply and easily from within your CAFM system; ensuring nothing is missed. See clearly what is coming up, schedule in the work and plan accordingly; pro-longing the life of your assets and preventing unplanned failures and unexpected costs arising.
INFORMATION ON THE GO
With secure access to all your information and documentation you, your team and even your contractors, can work from anywhere, with one simple log-in. Live updates and the ability to attach photos and documents to tasks mean you can see job progression in real time, enabling you to make immediate decisions, and provides a useful record of what has been done.
SIMPLIFIED REPORTING
With saved templates and easy report creation, you won’t need to manipulate your data or spend frustrating hours finding the information you need for your reports. Your CAFM should simply run the reports the reports you need.
USE YOUR EXISTING TECHNOLOGY
Modern CAFM runs securely in the cloud, enabling you, your team, and contractors, to work anywhere, without the cost of new technology.
MANAGED COMPLIANCE
Your CAFM should include a comprehensive Compliance Certificate Register, ensuring everything across your estate complies with relevant legislative requirements. View all your compliance dates and documents for your estates’ assets in once place, and be reminded when renewals are due, so you can plan ahead as well as budget more accurately.
INFORMED SPACE DECISIONS
CAFM makes your space reporting easy and fast. Tracking who is occupying which space, its area, the heated volume of each room, along with the overall usage figures, centrally and in real time, means you can release space for its best use; enabling informed space utilisation decisions to be made.
