Technology is playing an increasing part in an asset management strategy as building owners attempt to gain an increasing oversight into their building compliance, deliver better outcomes and lower costs.
As clients invest more in the technology space in order to gain efficiency with an ever-decreasing delivery team, They are also expecting the same from their providers to gain efficiencies and reduce cost. I’ve seen this include the internet of things, artificial intelligence, and a range of new applications that fill in certain niches.
Specifically, within the fire industry, we have seen the following technologies emerging:
- Internet of Things
- Virtual Reality
- Smart barcoding or geotagging of assets
- Client web portals and work order management systems
- Mobile applications
How does technology allow us to provide a better asset management strategy for building owners? How can we better adapt to drive further value in the digital age? What innovation can we provide to be part of the journey with our customers?
