Digital facilities management: Leveraging the power of people, data and technology e-book

As a building manager you’re constantly juggling competing priorities like rising energy costs, pressure to save money, facility management staff cuts, tenant demands, investor and board expectations and more.

With data scattered among multiple systems and vendors, creating useful actionable insights to achieve your goals seems nearly impossible. In this e-book you’ll learn ways to determine your portfolio’s unique needs, and how to choose the right vendors to help you achieve your smart building goals. Discover how to leverage the power of your building data to lower OPEX costs while maintaining occupant satisfaction across your entire portfolio.

Ever heard the saying it takes a village to raise a child? Well, it takes one to manage a building too. Each one is unique, from its use to its occupants and its systems to its operators. In this section we examine digital facilities management and the power of people who own and operate buildings. Those tasked with managing facilities are often unsung heroes who spend their days preventing catastrophes, saving money, fulfilling tenant requests and ensuring that large portfolios operate smoothly. Whether you’re the onsite facilities technician, regional energy manager, director of sustainability or CEO, chances are you juggle a plethora of building challenges. Perhaps it’s fielding space temperature complaints. Or maybe you’re managing excessive utility bills. You might be planning the next big CapEx project. Whatever your role, you have your hands full.
