The Houses of Parliament are considering options for replacing its current Facilities Management system with an Integrated Workspace Management Solution (IWMS) to deliver efficiencies by improving processes; introducing modern tools to allocate/schedule work, enabling remote/mobile working; improving management reporting, and consolidating a number of disparate specialist systems that manage:
— Reactive, Planned Maintenance and Helpdesk
— Space, Moves (staff/departments) and Furnishings
— Accidents, Incidents and Risk Assessments
— Fire and Risk Management
— Environmental Compliance
— Asset Surveys
— Project Management
It is critical that that our ICT systems in Parliament incorporate essential technologies to not only support our business processes across both Houses, but also contribute significantly in helping us meet our business critical priorities.
