Key Trends in Digital Facility Management

Having worked with over 120,000 users across 75+ countries to help digitize their buildings operations, our team at PlanRadar has some key insights about on what’s buzzing in the world of digital facility management. 

1. Embracing IoT and Smart Solutions: Gone are days of manual and reactive management. The integration of IoT devices and smart building solutions has become quintessential. These tools provide facility managers with real-time monitoring capabilities, enhancing efficiency, sustainability, and the overall occupant experience.

Analytics empowers managers with insights, allowing them to make strategic decisions optimizing operations and resource allocation. Monitoring key performance indicators, like energy consumption metrics, enables continuous improvement.
