Royal Grammar School Guildford Dubai selects Facilio’s IoT operations platform to deliver a world-class campus experience
February 12th, 2024: Royal Grammar School Guildford, Dubai(RGSGD) partners with
Facilio
and deploys their IoT-powered Connected CaFM platform to
digitally transform their campus operations and deliver a
world-class experience to students.
RGSGD is owned and funded by Cognita, a leading global
schools’ group. Designed to be sustainable from day one, the
40,000 sqm. Dubai campus located within Majid Al Futtaim’s
exciting new Tilal Al Ghaf development, is the first nearly
Zero Energy School with a BREEAM sustainable building rating
in the Middle East. As part of their ongoing modernisation
drive, the institution has replaced their legacy facility
management systems with
Facilio’s Connected CaFM,
a new-age, agile platform that centralises campus operations
and enables seamless delivery of services.
Najeem Hameed, Manager of School Operations at RGSGD
says,
Our institution has always been strongly focused on
continued innovation and sustainability from the time of
inception. When I took on the task of digitally transforming
number of our facility management processes, I wanted an
innovative solution that would streamline our processes -
from asset, visitor and inventory management, to outsourced
staff management.
"In the past, we had a number of processes and
communication tools within, and across teams. However, with
Facilio’s Connected CaFM solution, we now have one single
source of information to track progress and view operational
performance, providing us with clear oversight of the entire
campus facilities and operations.”
“Globally, the quality of on-campus services is critical to
higher enrolment & retention rates. However, most FM teams
struggle to maintain high standards due to a heavy reliance
on their complex legacy CaFM systems. Facilio's Connected
CaFM unifies all campus operations & maintenance in one
place, offering more than just asset & record maintenance.
Its IoT-led automation & real-time insights help FM teams
drive service excellence from day one & focus all efforts on
growing ROI and succeed in their core missions of delivering
high-quality education,”
says Prabhu Ramachandran, CEO of Facilio.
Facilio works with many leading education institutions across
the world, including
Australia’s most prestigious college university, helping them to effortlessly manage facilities, enhance
student safety and maximise campus ROI by leveraging the power
of IoT.
