Optimizing facilities and promoting high performance with GIS
For competitive technology companies, it's not enough for facilities optimization to focus solely on maintaining assets. Forward-looking leaders can holistically manage facilities with a geographic information system (GIS) to ensure efficient operations—from understanding real estate demands and infrastructure needs to optimizing spaces in offices and data centers. Gain a dynamic view of facilities, with perspectives from global to hyperlocal, to make proactive decisions that keep facilities running at full potential and retain top talent.
Use dynamic maps to gain a holistic view of facilities data—from the status of equipment to changing conditions at global sites. Visualize the built environment, human and asset movement, traffic, and other datasets in a single view to make decisions based on current conditions.
Securely share interactive facility maps to promote quick problem-solving that minimizes errors and keeps projects on time. Precisely evaluate fixed and dynamic assets to complete more projects quickly.
Improve maintenance planning and reallocate underutilized resources. Take proactive steps to avoid asset failure, resolve work faster, and direct resources to the right place. Reduce manual data gathering and retain institutional knowledge with one source of truth.
Monitor incidents as they emerge within or adjacent to facilities and quickly assess risks. Track resources and create shared awareness of incident information. Respond faster and reduce risks of injury and loss.
Use smart maps and dashboards to enhance day-to-day operations and maintenance status with real-time awareness of fixed and moving asset locations and conditions. Speed data sharing with mobile apps that support streamlined communication and quick resolution of issues. Understand the best ways to deploy resources for top performance while managing costs.
Properly define, allocate, and assign space to better support workplace productivity with GIS. Optimize team access to building assets including collaboration spaces, conference rooms, equipment, and amenities. Minimize wasted space and foster essential connections among staff.
Give business leaders, security managers, and operations teams the real-time situational awareness and advanced geospatial analytics they need to minimize risk and provide secure workplaces. Dynamic maps deliver a common operating picture for planning and response activities to protect people, property, and business continuity.
Elevate traditional market knowledge with powerful spatial analysis tools to optimize facilities selection and planning. Unite disparate data streams into a single view to visualize demand and opportunities at all scales. Use dynamic smart maps to understand the environment around and within sites and facilities, energy costs, and infrastructure. Determine where to best allocate strategic investments based on real-world conditions grounded in location-specific data and analysis.
