by Brianna Crandall — October 7, 2016 — ARCHIBUS, a developer of real estate, infrastructure and facilities management software used at over 44,000 sites worldwide, announced the latest release of ARCHIBUS software at IFMA’s World Workplace this week, October 5-7, in San Diego, California.
The new release delivers on the promise of enterprise information modeling (EIM) by providing a collaborative environment that synchronizes operational tasks with strategic goals for optimal business performance and return on investment (ROI).
Also included are new and enhanced applications and capabilities that organize all information on people, processes, places, assets, and costs. The result is a decision-support environment that enables organizations of all sizes to optimize capital investments and improve operating expenses for complete lifecycle management of all its assets.
ARCHIBUS V.23 delivers actionable intelligence with the:
- ARCHIBUS Enterprise Information Model, which normalizes, correlates, and summarizes business intelligence from massive amounts of data and heterogeneous sources such as geographic information system (GIS) datasets, building models, computer-aided design (CAD) drawings, Big Data, Internet of Things (IoT), Building Automation Systems (BAS), enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and more.
- ARCHIBUS Web Central 3D Navigator, which lets users visualize, analyze and interact with their buildings, building systems and assets data, in a new way, that extends from the initial design/build phase to full lifecycle management of an organization’s building assets.
The Enterprise Information Modeling (EIM) environment integrates operational and financial information within the new Strategic Financial Analysis (SFA) application, which provides a unified cost model of an organization’s capital asset investments and operating expenses of its entire portfolio. Using intuitive configurable consoles, SFA delivers metrics and benchmarks for the full range of real estate, infrastructure and facilities data, including capital expenditures (CapEx), operating expenditures (OpEx), total cost of ownership / occupancy, and asset condition.
In conjunction with the ARCHIBUS Strategic Space Planning and Enterprise Asset Management applications, users can easily plan and visualize what-if, and event-driven scenarios to align real estate, infrastructure and facilities information to achieve business objectives, notes the company.
Whether processing an individual request or accepting data on an entire portfolio, ARCHIBUS Enterprise Information Modeling correlates all information within its comprehensive suite of applications to provide a holistic view of an enterprise.
The new ARCHIBUS EIM release is now available for purchase from ARCHIBUS Business Partners, who operate within the global ARCHIBUS Federated Eco-System. For more information, visit the ARCHIBUS Web site and see FM-specific information on the company’s FMLink page.
