"By identifying space vacancies using ARCHIBUS, we were able to achieve a restack that delivered six-figure savings in annual lease costs."

"Before the [ARCHIBUS] system, we didn't have the ability to find information quickly or track it. Now we have it in a central location and can access all our project information from the system. It also helped us with catching some errors in design earlier and saved us about $1,000,000 in rework."

"Pirelli chose ARCHIBUS because each module matched project requirements. One of the most important reasons Pirelli was chosen as a partner [by Italian governments, to manage agency facilities] was the promise to use and implement ARCHIBUS."

"One of the key value customers achieve with ARCHIBUS is direct process improvement... A general asked [his staff] for a report listing all his space and where everyone was and where they sat. The report took several months and was 75% accurate. Then we came in and put in a system. The next time he asked for a report, he had it in a few hours and it was 95% accurate. It was quite valuable to the organization - and to him."

"ARCHIBUS has enabled the executive team to have direct access to near real-time operational data. Prior to the system, we had data that was gathered on a quarterly and sometimes on an annual basis. It's difficult to make informed changes from an operations standpoint when you're working with data that old."

"At present, we are working on a public sector project [with Italian government] whose aim is to reduce real estate and facilities management costs by over €1.5 billion in three years. Space planning is a crucial capability to achieving those results and ARCHIBUS will be a perfect companion to ensure feasibility and success."

"This is my eighth conference. I find the networking is great -- lessons-learned from other companies are a great benefit for us to take back to our CEO. So is the free training. It has also given me the opportunity to view other modules, and to see how they work and the benefit of having them in our company."

"The University portfolio consists of over 500,000 square meters [approximately 5,000,000 square feet] of space in 380 buildings and in the next few years that floor space is expected to double ... The ARCHIBUS implementation has made it easier to manage our most strategic activities. It is making us more efficient and effective in improving services to students, researchers, and faculty."

"The benefit of ARCHIBUS for our organization has been to provide a service, a systematic approach - a science to the service for our customers. We're also bound in the healthcare business by a ton of regulation and accreditation standards; we have the documentation and infrastructure that ARCHIBUS provides for demonstration of performance."

"ARCHIBUS is used by upper management to ensure we're meeting our business objectives, including KPIs. To ensure we're meeting those and our regulatory compliance, upper management pulls reports based on ARCHIBUS. It will also help us address the future and customer issues such as condition assessment and environmental sustainability. These can be very big in the medical space."

"On 10,000 work orders, we'd only receive hours and comments on 5,000. Since our [ARCHIBUS] deployment, we're up to 90%. We finally see that 100% is a reasonable goal we can actually reach."

"In 24 months, Pirelli has acquired 250 public clients, each with one or more contracts. W e manage 3,000 buildings totaling 5,000,000 square meters [50,000,000 square feet] of space and provide over 6,000 specific services.. Thanks to the ARCHIBUS implementation, Pirelli is able to monitor project timing, document management, estimating, contract management and building operations management on a single platform."

"If we didn’t have ARCHIBUS, we'd still be in the Stone Age. All we had running [prior to the merger with Mellon, producing a company with approximately 19,000,000 square feet of space] was a third party system that gave us hard data we could export onto Excel, but we couldn't tie the space data back to other information such as drawings. With ARCHIBUS, we've been able to pull a lot of different information together."
