Sustainability SMART Building - Essential Information & Tools

In everything we do, we need to plan for a systematic approach, data gathering, and collect the correct information.

This also applies to assets management, estate management, IFM, or even operations. It is essential to have a system to update the latest authority requirement, a folder where all stakeholders and management can access up-to-date information like budget amount spent, what is the budget available, real-time updates on the project status, maintenance, status of the procurement process, payment to contractors, latest updated drawings, what are the outstanding work, defects, equipment status, reminder on leasing & license expiry, the tender price collection compare to the average price. The advantages of this help to cut down the possibility of documents missing, not the correct or latest data, etc. All these are possible with proper planning with system design by inputting information with the help of AI.

However, AI can only base on the information & data human being keying in. It can be only used as a tool to assist. It still needs a human being to execute the work, oversee the process and react to the condition if there are changes that arise. Thus, I recommend having a well-trained experienced professional for the post.
