2 Common FM Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

We've noticed a lot of departments that need improvement from our many years of working directly in the facilities management activity. This is regrettable but understood because the FM sector is undergoing rapid change, making it difficult for organizations to stay up.

Additionally, it's evident that some businesses do not fully appreciate the influence that facilities management may have, which is why they do not recruit a professional staff or provide the required resources.

Error 1: Manually collecting and analyzing FM data

Using technologies like Excel spreadsheets, many facilities departments seek to compile, arrange, and analyze all data themselves. While this technique could be effective in the short term, managers frequently come to the conclusion that manual data procedures are not a practical option because they have too much data or their firm is growing too rapidly.

How to Avoid This: As a primary priority, facilities managers should include a sophisticated software platform with powerful analytics capabilities into their current procedures. With the use of this technology, facility data may be automatically and precisely gathered, combined, organized, and evaluated from many sources, providing data transparency for all parties and producing understandable reports.

Error 2: Being reactive rather than proactive.

In facilities management, some degree of responsiveness is unavoidable; equipment might break down without warning or challenging conditions can call for a prompt reaction. However, a facilities department may save more money and have fewer emergencies if they are more proactive.

How to Avoid This: FMs can give priority to preventive maintenance to become more proactive. Regular preventive maintenance, also known as upkeep work, increases brand uptime, minimizes costs by ensuring that equipment is always in top operational condition, and guarantees that it is always in the best possible condition. By automating repetitive work order scheduling, recording asset warranties, and providing alerts when service is due, an FM software platform may assist in ensuring that preventative maintenance is given priority.
