The building industry has focused a lot of attention on improving the hand-off from design to construction. Far less effort has been spent on the transition from construction to operations. As building owners near completion of a new facility, they need to assemble the information they will need to operate the building safely and efficiently.
This transition typically involves uploading data about each facility – assets, locations, drawings, models, etc. – into an FM application (i.e. CMMS, Asset Management) so that data can be linked to maintenance plans and work orders. Converting construction documentation into the data needed to fuel FM applications remains a significant hurdle that can cause costly delays.
Building owners receive a “turnover package” at the end of construction that often includes thousands of documents. They need to sift through these documents to find the equipment, location, warranty, and maintenance data that will be uploaded to their FM applications. Owners who use VueOps SiteLine as their FM application, avoid this hurdle because extracting critical FM data is part of our setup process. SiteLine can also generate a CMMS-compatible import file for owners who use SiteLine in conjunction with a CMMS.
VueOps accelerates the transition to facility operations, improving the productivity of the FM team and makes the building safer and more efficient. Here’s how it works:
In summary, VueOps SiteLine enables a smooth transition process, ensuring swift data transfer and alignment between construction and facility management teams. This ultimately boosts operational productivity and enhances maintenance effectiveness for the building's lifecycle.
