June 26, 2006—ARCHIBUS, Inc. announces the V.16 release of ARCHIBUS/FM. As the worlds most widely deployed software solution for infrastructure and facilities management, according to the company, ARCHIBUS/FM is currently used by more than 3,000,000 people to manage over 16 billion square feet of space in 1.4 million buildings.
ARCHIBUS/FM V.16 incorporates a long list of enhancements that improve the functionality and usability of the software, including:
- Activity-Based Deployment. With activity-based deployment, users can more easily gain clear definition and consensus on the automation priorities of highest value in the organization, and quickly detail responsibilities, identify resources, and set specific timeframes for achieving organizations goals. Even a broad range of automation goals can be achieved activity-by-activity, step-by-step, with each new function building on the data, skills, and success of the previous deployment.
- New “Learning Path.” ARCHIBUS/FM V.16 includes a role-based Learning Path that is integrated directly into the Help system so users can quickly identify the information that is most relevant to a particular job. This results in a flatter learning curve for new users, greater productivity, and reduced staff training needs.
- New “Getting Results” Section. This new section presents ARCHIBUS/FM from the standpoint of the business results to be achieved, providing lists of prerequisites, goals, and organizational titles with a stake in the results. Users are able to quickly move from goals to action plans and the tools needed to achieve those results.
ARCHIBUS is the leader provider of infrastructure and facilities management solutions in the world. For more information, visit ARCHIBUS as well as their ad on FMLink.
