挑战
Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp. faced significant challenges in managing its facilities, which included 34 buildings across the U.S. with a total of 1.4 million square feet. The Facilities department was burdened with time-consuming, manual management systems for space and maintenance information. Leases were stored as hard copies, and lease activities were recorded in Excel spreadsheets, making access and management cumbersome. Utilities costs were tracked in a separate system, further complicating property and lease management. The fragmented data and manual processes hindered efficient management and decision-making.
关于客户
Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp. is a leading provider of advanced imaging, communications, and information solutions for government and commercial aerospace markets. The company operates 34 owned and leased buildings across the United States, totaling 1.4 million square feet. The Facilities department, responsible for managing these properties, faced challenges with manual and fragmented data management systems. To address these issues, Ball Aerospace implemented ARCHIBUS applications to streamline and automate space, maintenance, and lease management processes. This transformation has positioned the Facilities department as a strategic player within the company's management structure.
解决方案
To address the challenges, Ball Aerospace implemented several ARCHIBUS applications, starting with ARCHIBUS Space Management to improve space data accuracy. The company then added Building Operations Management to upgrade preventive maintenance practices. ARCHIBUS Real Property & Lease Management (RPLM) was introduced to digitize and centralize lease information, making it accessible and reportable. The RPLM system also integrated utilities and other costs, allowing for accurate budgeting and forecasting. Additionally, Telecommunications & Cable Management and Move Management applications were implemented to enhance asset management and streamline business processes. These solutions provided real-time data, improved decision-support, and increased the Facilities department's credibility with executive management.
