December 14, 2005—VFA, Inc., a leading provider of software and services for facilities management and capital planning, has announced that the State of Missouri has expanded its use of VFA’s Capital Planning and Management Solution (CPMS) among nearly all state-owned facilities, excluding higher education institutions.
Over the past three years, Missouri has employed VFA services to help it assess more than five million square feet of state-owned facilities, and has used VFA software to manage its facilities data and support capital planning, VFA says.
Under the terms of the recent agreement, VFA will assess an additional 27 million square feet of facilities for the State of Missouri. VFA will also train State employees in its best practice methodology for facility assessment. VFA works in conjunction with state employees to assess facilities in Missouri’s real estate portfolio.
Missouri uses VFA’s capital asset planning and management software, VFA.facility, to centrally manage facility assessment data, tracking the condition and value of its facilities on an ongoing basis. State officials use this data to analyze the facility maintenance and renewal needs of agencies statewide and to ensure effective long-term utilization of capital assets.
Headquartered in Boston, VFA, Inc. provides powerful Web-based software and consulting services to over 275 organizations to strategically manage more than one billion square feet of real estate. For more information, contact VFA as well as see their ad on FMLink .
