Episode Summary

The FM industry is on the cusp of a paradigm shift with the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and automation technologies.

Now, AI has already started to automate repetitive and mundane maintenance tasks, freeing up time and effort that can be redirected toward more strategic, value-adding initiatives.

This opens up the opportunity for scheduling and allocation of maintenance tasks to become automated, and possibly even unsupervised, to enhance team productivity, efficiency, and reliability.

Tune in to this exciting episode to learn:

  • why the prospect of AI in maintenance scheduling and resource allocation is promising
  • how it can help FM teams reclaim their time to focus on things that matter more.
  • how FM companies can build a strong foundation for the use of AI and create a competitive advantage
