Integrated workplace
management system
As buildings and their systems become ever more complex and sophisticated, facility managers are increasingly relying on specialist technology and software to manage them effectively. At Olive Arabia, we’ve been at the forefront of adopting these new technologies. Today, our service delivery is underpinned by our Integrated Workplace Management System (IWMS) software platform.
As its name suggests, our IWMS is a fully integrated, all-in-one software solution that brings together many of the functions and capabilities found in Computer Aided Facility Management (CAFM) Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS) and other software.
IWMS encompasses five vital functional areas: Facilitiy Management, Real Estate and Property Management, Operations and Maintenance Management, Sustainability and Energy Management, Capital Project Management. Its great strength – and the reason we’ve adopted it and continue to evolve it – is its ability to capture and consolidate data and metrics across all of them in a single platform. This gives you full visibility across all your facility management operations, providing both great detail and an unparallelled ‘big-picture’ view.
By consolidating and storing data from across the organisation in a single, centralised source, IWMS simplifies and streamlines the processes for managing tasks, approvals and notifications. Repetitive, routine tasks such as data entry are largely automated, reducing manual effort while saving time, improving productivity and minimising errors. Its comprehensive reporting and analytics functions provide detailed insights into workplace performance, resource use and cost-saving opportunities. This in turn makes it easier to design and manage maintenance schedules, work arrangements and service patterns, which can all lead to improved user satisfaction, engagement and productivity.
While we’ve enthusiastically embraced IWMS as a powerful and liberating technology, we’ve never lost sight of the fact that Olive Arabia is, fundamentally, a people business. Data, however comprehensive, is only truly useful when you put in people’s hands. So as well as providing a simple interface for managers in the office, the platform also supplies data to operators on the ground through a mobile solution. It also serves as a communication hub, allowing staff to submit service requests, report issues and obtain information from one place.
