Services that OnLine FM offers:
OnLINE works as a consultant and service provider to assist organizations in the analysis, planning, design, implementation and support of facility information management solutions. We like to call it building a Master Facilities File (MFF).
A MFF has the potential to encompass all aspects of managing and tracking space, furniture/equipment, maintenance activities, projects, facility cost, personnel, etc.. OnLINE has assisted clients such as : Opryland Hotel, State of TN, LifeWay Christian Resources, First TN Bank, FEDEX, Memphis International Airport, St. Jude Children's Hospital, The Regional Medical Center and Univ. of MS Medical Center, with valuable MFF support services including :
  • CAFM System Implementation Analysis - The importance of an Implementation Analysis can not be over stated. The focus here is on determining information tracking and reporting requirements, evaluating existing data sources, and informational flow processes, identifying necessary tasks, assigning task and schedules to in-house team members or OnLINE staff. In addition, OnLINE goes beyond the system analysis to help you look at your business processes and determine if any re-engineering of existing processes makes sense in order to ensure that your operation is taking full advantage of the technology, rather than the technology taking advantage of you.
  • System Design/Programming & Network Set-up - From the Implementation Analysis document OnLINE programming and implementation technicians will build a system from that will meet your identified needs. Because of the huge investment and risks involved in building a solution from scratch, OnLINE strives to utilize "off the shelf" components to accomplish a suitable solution.
