Facility management software is becoming increasingly important in schools and universities. By automating many of the day-to-day operations, such as maintenance scheduling and inventory tracking, facility management software can help streamline the running of a school or university and free up resources for other activities that benefit students’ learning.
For example, with automated systems in place, teachers can focus on preparing lessons rather than wasting time dealing with administrative tasks. Similarly, by using automated software to monitor and manage the school’s equipment and facilities, administrators can better allocate funds toward improving educational resources.
In addition to freeing up time for teaching staff and administrators, facility management software also helps improve safety standards within academic institutions. Automated systems can be used to ensure that maintenance tasks and repairs are completed efficiently, alerting school staff of any issues before students arrive on campus. This can help reduce the risk of accidents or injuries in classrooms and other areas.
Facility management software also helps schools better manage their resources and budget more effectively. By tracking inventory levels, order fulfillment times, and other key metrics, school administrators can make informed decisions about resource allocation – ensuring that funds are being used as efficiently as possible to support student learning.
By implementing facility management software, schools can ensure that their resources are being used in the most effective way possible to benefit students and create an optimal learning environment. In doing so, they will be able to foster a culture of excellence and enable students to thrive academically.

Emergency Management and Facilities Preparedness
Emergency preparedness – commonly known in facilities management as emergency management – is a discipline of unvarying planning, preparation and support for emergency situations that may someday affect either the premises or the human and physical assets that exist on the premises. It is a program that seeks to both avoid risk – as well as prevent the negative impacts of risk when the situation arises.
Facilitate Work Order Management with Software
Work order management software, such as PropertyTRAK helps the facilities manager assign tasks right from the desktop – to be delivered over networks or even wirelessly – virtually eliminating a trail of paperwork, as well as eliminating possible mishandling that may lead to delays in service request completion.
Use of Facilities Management Software in Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance software from PropertyTRAK allows facilities managers the ability to schedule preventive maintenance, as well as manage multiple maintenance tasks across the facility and track progress.

“Helped us keep our doors open”
“The Liberty Tower was opened to the public in 1926 and we have now expanded the Museum to more than 100,000 square feet. PropertyTRAK has helped us organize and prioritize maintenance throughout all our areas of operation.
It is an easy-to-use service request system for our employees, sends automated notices of work order assignments to staff, and tracks completion for each department. Communication between employees, staff, and vendors has been greatly improved.
Using it has improved efficiencies so we can maximize our staff resources – a very big concern for public facilities. PropertyTRAK has helped us keep our doors open.”
