Blockchain enabled computer aided facility management platform facilitating value-chain transparency and collaboration

设施管理（FM）确保建筑环境的最佳功能、效率、舒适度和安全性。FM是一门复杂的学科，经常外包给FM提供商，后者又与专业服务提供商签订合同来完成工作订单。在促进合作的同时，该行业也存在激烈的对抗性，每个利益相关者都在竞相保护/扩大自己的财务份额。这导致不信任、分裂和缺乏（数据）透明度，导致所有利益相关者的结果更差。计算机辅助设施管理（CAFM）软件旨在通过提高数据和服务的透明度和可访问性来克服这些挑战，并能够部署强大的人工智能和机器学习工具来支持或自动化决策和任务。然而，现有的CAFM平台很少充分发挥其潜力，未能解决该行业的潜在需求/挑战，受到以下因素的限制：数据管理结构（FM提供商所有权/控制权，阻碍协作和剥夺设施所有者的权力），数据捕获技术（自动化程度低，需要耗时/人工维护），以及平台功能（受数据质量和丰富性差的限制）。我们寻求通过开发世界上第一个真正协作的CAFM平台来克服这些挑战。

Facilities Management (FM) ensures the optimum functionality, efficiency, comfort, and safety of the built environment. FM is a complex discipline, frequently outsourced to FM providers, who in turn contract specialist service providers to complete work orders.Whilst promoting collaboration, the sector is fiercely adversarial, with each stakeholder competing to protect/extend their financial share. This drives distrust, division, and lack of (data) transparency, leading to poorer outcomes for all stakeholders.Computer aided facility management (CAFM) software seeks to overcome these challenges by facilitating transparency and accessibility of data and services and enables the deployment of powerful artificial-intelligence and machine-learning tools to support or automate decision making and tasks.However, existing CAFM platforms are rarely used to their full potential and fail to address the underlying needs/challenges of the sector, limited by:* data management structure (FM provider ownership/control, disincentivising collaboration and disempowering facility owners),* data capture techniques (poor automation and requiring time-consuming/manual maintenance), and* platform functionality (limited by poor data quality and richness).We seek to overcome these challenges through development of a worlds-first truly collaborative CAFM platform.
