Inpixon and FSI Team for Facility Management Solutions Incorporating Intelligent Maps to Combat COVID-19

Businesses Can Visualize Areas of the Building That Have Poor Air Quality or Contaminated Assets, Dispatch Workers, and Quickly Navigate to Air Filters to Be Replaced or Areas to Be Sanitized

Inpixon, a leading indoor data company that delivers Indoor Intelligence™ solutions, announced a collaboration agreement with FSI (FM Solutions) Limited (FSI), a market leader in facility management solutions and workplace technology, specifically, computer-aided facility management (CAFM) and integrated workplace management systems (IWMS). FSI is headquartered in the United Kingdom with offices in North America, Australia and Asia.

Facility management software provides organizations a holistic view of their facility and maintenance activities, enabling them to effectively plan preventative maintenance, assign and track work orders, optimize energy efficiency, and more. The system incorporates data from a variety of sensors and IoT devices, many of which have both a spatial component (e.g., location within the facility) and building information modeling (BIM) data (e.g., part number and manufacturer). Plotting sensors, equipment, devices and BIM data directly onto Inpixon indoor maps delivers an intuitive graphic presentation of the facility’s information for easier visualization and faster decision making.

Inpixon and FSI are teaming to pursue joint opportunities for their solutions, with an initial emphasis on enterprise implementations that address pandemic-related challenges. Indoor spaces can be a transmission vector for viruses, underlining the importance for tools to help organizations safeguard their employees and visitors.

With FSI and Inpixon, along with the appropriate environmental sensors and integrations, customers can achieve, among other benefits, the following:

• Identify building zones that have sensors reporting poor air quality;
• Pinpoint and navigate to heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) units that have sensors reporting a need for filter cleaning or replacement;
• Dispatch cleaning teams and navigate to areas or assets identified as needing sanitation efforts;
• Assign work orders to reconfigure cubicles to allow for more social distancing;
• Automatically reconfigure airflow with a tap on the map.
