2004 UC Proceedings Abstract
Total Facilities Management With GIS, MAXIMO, and CAD Track: Defense and Intelligence Author(s): Jason Thacker Facilities management has multiple definitions for people in an organization. Some might be interested in the cost to perform a major building renovation, others might be interested in its location and proximity to other things, and others might be interested in the square footage of the rooms within the building for cleaning purposes or furnishing. Historically, facilities managers have gone to multiple applications to get the answers to such questions. These answers however, are easy to come by through seamlessly integrating GIS with an asset management system such as MAXIMO, and using scheduled ArcObjects routines to convert frequently edited CAD data, that has historically been used to manage building footprints, into a geodatabase, to answer questions such as "how much square footage is in this room". TAIC will present our "one-stop" solution for facility managers to make informed decisions from a single application.
