FM SOFTWARE
increase business productivity in one go,’ said Pierre Guelen, CEO of Planon Group. ‘True IWMS software is based on a single database platform where multiple business processes from all disciplines are interconnected.’
INNOVATION IN IWMS This focus on interconnectivity is what has led to Planon’s success in the IWMS space. Planon is a global player in the IWMS space with 30 years of experience working with thousands of customers across the globe. They have a comprehensive solution covering real estate management, space planning, maintenance management, employee services and sustainability that is integrated-by-design and developed entirely in-house.
What’s more, they continue to develop new solutions, such as the ones Planon is showing at The Facilities Show this June:
1. In addition to software that supports corporate real estate and facility managers, Planon has also developed a specialised software platform for commercial service providers. This solution has specific functionality to create operating efficiency, increase customer value, and enable business innovation through radical process automation.
2. With changes to lease accounting standards from the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), Planon released a solution that has been validated by a Big Four accounting firm for various uses, based on how the new standards affect all types of leases.
3. There is growing interest in the Building Internet of Things (IoT), which has resulted in sensors to measure real-time occupancy of meeting rooms and smart assets that self-report maintenance needs. Planon’s IoT solutions embrace this future.
To see Planon at The Facilities Show, visit stand R850 or attend one of the lunch and learn presentations they are giving in the Facilities Management Theatre.

20 JUNE | 12:00 WORK ON THE MOVE 2: SMART FUTURES
One of the most striking terms we encounter today is ‘smart.’ While the word ‘connected’ may be a better description in some cases, the emergence of new technologies that allow systems to actually learn (also referred to as ‘deep learning’ or ‘machine learning’) is pushing us closer to truly revolutionising how we interact and manage our buildings or rather how buildings interact and react to us. By understanding the real developments around these disruptive technologies (including IoT, Big Data and analytics), we can better plan for their adoption in the workplace as we move toward a smarter future. This lunch and learn will dig deeper into the chapter of ‘Work on the Move 2’ published by the IFMA Foundation that covers these topics.
21 JUNE | 12:00 BIM FOR RE & FM: ADOPTION & VALUE PROPOSITION
BIM technology has reached the tipping point. More buildings are being designed in BIM than with CAD, and legislation will accelerate this in the years to come. Software developers are providing tools for integration between BIM and FM tools. What new value propositions have come into the picture for RE & FM? What are good practices for BIM adoption? What is the potential role of FMs in design and construction processes? What is BIM’s potential impact on FM processes, and what are the information management aspects for FM of introducing BIM over the life cycle? This lunch and learn will delve into some important aspects of FM practice, including defining BIM deliverable requirements, understanding legal and contractual issues, addressing staff skills, and developing a true mindset of building life cycle management.
22 JUNE | 12:00 CASE STUDIES OF FM TECHNOLOGY
Hearing about a new technology or future innovation is often exciting and intimidating at the same time. Learning how others have used these technologies and the lessons learned can often make adopting them in your organisation a smoother process. This lunch and learn will present several short case studies of organisations integrating technologies such as IoT and BIM into their real estate and facility management processes.
