IFMA-SD 7/10/19 Luncheon - "Selecting the Best FM System" 

Registration Deadline:  Sunday, 7/7/19 at 11:59 PM

Whether you call it CAFM, IWMS, Work Order Systems or an Excel spreadsheet there is a lot to consider when choosing facilities management software, and the importance of careful planning can’t be emphasized enough.  To help you navigate the rapidly growing technology innovations we have put together a panel of Facilities Management experts representing small, medium and large companies who have been through the process numerous times combined.  Learn what worked, what didn’t, what they wish they had done, and many other best practices for selecting and implementing FM Systems.
