AB  - New technology has revolutionised the office, making some buildings
of the 1960s unsuitable for modern business. The implementation and
benefits of a Computer Aided Facilities Management (CAFM) system, in
enabling facilities managers to manage change and assemble the
background information necessary for arriving at the correct decisions,
are examined. The CAFM system, combining a computer aided design system
with a database, has been enhanced specifically for the use of space
planners and structured to take input from drawings and generate output
in formats that are directly useful to facilities managers. The need for
CAFM and its potential are assessed in part one. In part two the
implementation and use of CAFM are examined.
