Telling Stories with Data: Northeastern University's Journey to an Integrated Solution
If you are leading a major capital program and/or maintaining a large inventory of facilities, you are likely sitting on a gold mine of information. But how reliable, accessible, and integrated is this information? In many cases, data is dispersed throughout the organization within different silos, requiring multiple reports to answer a simple query.
Instead, what if all facilities, GIS, BIM, capital program, space, energy, and O&M data was available in one reliable and real-time location?
Northeastern University will illustrate their integrated solution and share the WHY and HOW behind it.
Learn from the developers of this unique and effective tool how it works and how it can help improve your project outcomes.
