The decision-making process for a particular CAFM system is often very complex: usability, connectivity, scope of services, future-proofing - the list of requirements is long. In order to lower the hurdles, the consulting firm Drees & Sommer has launched the CAFM workshop with currently eleven providers of CAFM and BIM solutions. Felix Leonhard, Senior Consultant at Drees & Sommer, explains: "The CAFM workshop is a way of making the digitization potential for facility management tangible before software is purchased. We think this is a good approach. We are pleased that we were able to win ALLPLAN as the leading provider in this area".
BIM creates efficiency in facility management
"Drees & Sommer's CAFM workshop offers the opportunity to experience the future of digitization today," says Stefan Kaufmann, Product Manager BIM Strategy & New Technologies at ALLPLAN. "With the integration of Allplan Bimplus into the MCS 20 IWMS software from our sister company SPACEWELL, we have taken a decisive step towards our goal of seamlessly connecting the AEC industry with end-to-end digital processes. For companies in the facility management sector, BIM-based work processes offer a wide range of potential for optimization and savings", continues Stefan Kaufmann.
