Helping Higher Education Facilities Manage Asset, Building, and Campus Infrastructure Documentation

Higher education campus facilities accumulate massive amounts of documentation for their assets, buildings, and site infrastructure. The challenge becomes overwhelming when you think about manually accessing, archiving, and properly managing decades worth of drawings and documents. As the volume of projects and installed assets increases, the task becomes truly impossible to do without an effective, flexible, powerful software solution.

But, with the right Facilities Drawing/Document Management System and partner, you can manage all of the documentation effectively, during the project and operational lifecycle of the buildings and infrastructure, including historical information in a neutral format.
