iOffice, Aquicore integrate for 100% visibility into energy use

by Brianna Crandall — October 9, 2015—iOffice and Aquicore announced this week their integrated solution to offer businesses 100% visibility into energy use in comparison to workforce activity. iOffice software is said to be the only “workforce-centric” integrated workplace management system (IWMS), and Aquicore is an emerging leader in the energy management systems arena.

“Data-driven solutions are making it easier than ever for FM leaders to get maximum efficiency out of every dollar spent in their facilities,” said iOffice co-founder Elizabeth Dukes. “We’re bringing two powerful SaaS technologies together to reduce costs and greenhouse gas emissions to unleash the full potential of the workplace.”

Under the new partnership, iOffice and Aquicore will offer their customers the ability to:

  •    Find new opportunities to better manage energy operations based on actual workforce demand, in real time;
  •    Automate processes, improve energy efficiency and eliminate energy waste; and
  •    Inventory all assets, including meters, to improve maintenance programs.

“Historically, building operators have had to make facilities and workplace management decisions every day without any real-time visibility into energy and resource usage,” said Logan Soya, CEO of Aquicore. “We are excited to partner with iOffice to break down the data silos that exist in building management and open up real-time energy data to the rest of the enterprise.”

At IFMA’s World Workplace Conference and Expo this week, Elizabeth Dukes and Pankaj Dhume, vice president of Global Corporate Services at BMC Software, are taking the stage to discuss “The 6 Key Ingredients of Successful Workplace Innovation,” with case study examples from BMC and practical lessons on how to immediately execute on the most important innovations shaping FM today.

Expo attendees can visit booth #750 for a full walkthrough of the iOffice modular solution. iOffice is also scheduling demonstrations on its Web site.
