As the UK economy emerges from the global pandemic, facilities managers face a tough time ahead, as they try to get their business back up and running amid the ongoing uncertainty.
To help speed up recovery, businesses must take advantage of the data they have within their business, which could be the difference between surviving and thriving.
Businesses should always strive to transform their data into business-enhancing insights, but there has never been a more important time to ensure people have access to the right information, at the right time, every time.
Businesses need to understand where improvements can be made or how time can be utilised to achieve better results and unlock the value in their data to deliver insight and drive productivity.
There are business intelligence apps that can help companies turn the masses of data they hold into timely, accurate and accessible information that drives well-informed decisions – without it, you’re just another person with an opinion.
What are the options? Over the years, data scarcity has moved to data overload,
which has caused confusion for many businesses that are struggling to see the wood from the trees.
Instead of manually sifting through endless pools of data, businesses need effective solutions that will do the heavy lifting for them, automatically creating insightful reports that allow for further analysis.
Even for the most experienced analysts, compiling reports manually is an extremely time-consuming process, and the final product usually lacks the level of detail and quality that’s needed to drive the business forward.
Meanwhile, Business Intelligence apps offer a streamlined alternative that will extract the relevant data and display it in an engaging report, offering up to the minute insights for employees at every level of the organisation.
Benefits for facilities managers
Business Intelligences solutions can provide massive benefits by providing insights derived from many different potential data sources from around the business/estate.
Buildings can be rich in the production of data such as electric, gas and water usage, feeds of data can be taken real-time to manage and predict costs and efficient usage patterns.
Coupled with specialist camera systems, footfall volumes can be monitored to tailor retail and staffing focus as well as social distancing needs, temperate checks, etc. Sensors in meeting rooms and desks can also show usage patterns and availability.
