What are
Computer-Aided Facilities Management (CAFM) Systems
A CAFM system is a digital platform that integrates facilities management tasks, including maintenance planning, asset management, space utilisation, and compliance tracking. Incorporating industry frameworks such as SFG20 allows for structured maintenance planning, while cleaning schedules can be digitised to ensure consistency and compliance. By using real-time data, automation, and analytics, CAFM systems help businesses enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve service delivery.
At MCP, we assist organisations in choosing the right CAFM solution, implementing it effectively, and aligning it with broader FM strategies for maximum impact.
