FSI - Computer Aided Facilities Management Software (CAFM)

• EASE OF USE. This is likely to be the most important consideration. With more than 25 years of development, the Concept Evolution software is designed with the end user in mind. It adopts a Microsoft look and feel; ensures successful use; and provides return on your investment.
• WEB BASED. Our software is future proof; built using the most up to date Microsoft .NET technology. Rollout and upgrades are fast; plus the software can be accessed anywhere through a web browser.
• SCALABLE. The software can be scaled to suit any company that manages a single facility through to a global property portfolio; the software can grow with your business.
• LOW COST OF OWNERSHIP. The solution is based on client configuration. As an 'Off the Shelf' solution and using industry standard databases; Concept Evolution offers an unmatched level of flexibility; client configuration capability; and integration capability. This, together with thorough documentation and a partnership approach to its rollout, ensures clients become self-sufficient and an upgrade path is kept; this means that significant savings in total cost of ownership is realised.
• BEST VALUE FUNCTIONALITY. The integrated functionality offered in our software is unmatched. Concept Evolution includes as a core function the most widely used and advanced Planned Preventative Maintenance Scheduling tool with Graphical View on the market. FSI was the first to introduce this system to the market; while the current version benefits from more than two decades worth of end user input and constant updates. As this tool is vital to the daily work of thousands of users worldwide, we know it works.
• INTEGRATION CAPABILITY. Concept Evolution can be easily used with your current business systems; such as with finance or HR software.

• FSI GO MOBILITY. FSI GO is the industry leading software platform for Mobile Application development. You can download it through the App Store, Google Play Store and Windows stores. FSI builds agile and fully customised mobile solutions through a 'Drag and Drop' interface; this extends the functions of both Concept Evolution and third party systems to mobile users. FSI GO provides cross platform support (IOS, Windows, and Android devices); a mixed rollout of smart phones and tablets; plus supports a 'bring your own' (BYOD) device strategy.
• BIM STRATEGY. FSI is in an ideal position to bring the benefits of integrating FM and BIM solutions to our clients. We are actively involved in industry leading forums; as well as developing the ISO international standards for the future:
  • CIBSE (Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers) BIM Steering Group
  • CIC (Construction Industry Council) BIM Hub for London
  • BSI (British Standards Institute) Steering Group for PAS: 1192-3 BIM to CAFM
  • The BIM Task Force and Technology Strategy Board collaborating to deliver Classification and the Digital Plan of Works
  • While others are talking about the benefits of integrating BIM and FM Solutions; FSI has already delivered projects in the UK and in Australia. As well as this, FSI has won the i-FM Technology in FM Awards 2014 for integrating Autodesk BIM with Concept Evolution.
• PPP EXPERIENCE. FSI has a lot of experience in the interpretation of Abatement Mechanisms; this experience has been gained through more than 10 years and over 60 PPP projects worldwide.
