Do your lengthy and painful EMS, TRAC and FEC returns processes get you down? Well now Mass Software has the answer.
Mass Software introduces a comprehensive space management database integrated with drawing information which works as an essential platform to drive space management initiatives e.g. space utilisation, Funding Council returns or Estates Management Statistics.
Guidance from HEFCE states that institutions who charge for space and have central timetabling systems achieve a far greater space utilisation than those who don't. What's often missing from these two initiatives is a robust system to integrate with and supply the core data. This is where ARCHIBUS combined with the Higher Education Reporting module can mange this data and output the required figures for EMS, TRAC and FEC.
Mass Software's Asset Management solution, ARCHIBUS, is uniquely placed in the market to provide a full dynamic link to AutoCAD & Architecture DWG drawings and Revit format drawings to enable updated information to be provided to the end user and a definable reporting module in real time.
ARCHIBUS also benefits from a completely open database so that the reporting structure of data for space returns can be supported. So many other products in the marketplace simply do not benefit from these two features.
Mass software can boast the largest client base of Higher Education and Further Education institutions in the UK with over 30 clients using our software and solutions.
One example of a long and fruitful partnership with a Higher Education body is evident with the University of Edinburgh. The University is using 21st Century technology to help manage the estates and buildings at its historic 530,000 square metre site in the heart of the city. The University estate comprises more than 200 major academic buildings, plus residential halls and flats, for a total of 25,000 students. In addition, there are 1,700 hectares of open space used as playing fields, agricultural land and landscaped areas. The Estates and Buildings Department manages these properties and land, and employs 750 staff, plus external contractors.
Technical Project Manager Paul Eyden, has 12 years of estates experience at a leading Russell Group University in Nottingham, where he set up their CAD linked Space Management system and worked closely with the EMS steering group and on the HEFCE, Leadership, Management and Governance funded SpaceMAP project.
Paul has used his experience and knowledge of the reporting requirements and data structure of Space Management in the sector to update our module and filter his knowledge through our support and implementation team.
As a result, Mass Software now have a world class reporting module that distinguishes between space used for teaching, research or other purposes and also manages shared space. Reports can be quickly and easily generated to determine, for example, percentage usage of rooms by user over a specified time period, space chargeback, or analysis of room use.
