Onsite Equipment Mapping for Your Educational Facility

Onsite Equipment Mapping is critical to FacilityONE's facility management software onboarding process. This step in the onboarding process comes after your school or college's floor plans and/or blueprints are transformed into F1 MAPS interactive maps, but before going live.

To execute this part of onboarding, an experienced Onsite Equipment Mapping team member will travel to your school district or college campus for a pre-determined amount of time. While onsite, the team will canvas all levels of each building, including basements and roofs, to take pictures of each piece of equipment, including but not limited to mechanical, electrical, and plumbing assets. In addition to taking pictures of the equipment, the team also collects critical information like model and serial numbers.

With years of expertise in onboarding educational facilities, each member of FacilityONE's onsite equipment mapping team can canvas, photograph, and document approximately 100,000 square feet of assets and equipment per day.

Benefits of Onsite Equipment Mapping
Choosing to have the Onsite Equipment Mapping team onsite during onboarding significantly benefits your educational facility and facility management team. Onsite equipment mapping can:

• Improve the accuracy of equipment locations and information
• Increase knowledge of onsite equipment inventory
• Allow facility information to be easily shared with new team members
• Reduce response times during an emergency
• Assist in more informed budgeting and capital planning
• Provide enhanced asset management 

After Onsite Equipment Mapping
When the Onsite Equipment Mapping team has completed their tasks at your school or college, the equipment photos and information collected are uploaded into your FacilityONE Solutions Suite. In F1 MAPS, interactive mapping software, the images, and data are mapped to their exact location in your facility. A digital equipment card is also created for each piece of equipment and attached to it.

By clicking on a piece of equipment, facility managers and technicians can view existing asset information and add new information, like maintenance notes, photos, or videos. Equipment can be viewed and edited from any smartphone, tablet, or computer connected to the internet. Managers and technicians can then easily search for equipment, attach work orders to the equipment, and run reports.
