FMDepartment.com - About Us

Vision Facilities Management Ltd was founded in 1994 and released its first CAFM software package called VisionFM in 1996.  Immediately upon its release, both end users and consultants alike were impressed by VisionFM’s ease of use, low cost, and flexibility. VisionFM was created using the most recent technology of its day and over time evolved to not only a CAFM system but an integrated system that includes CAFM, CMMS and FIMS. After 15 years in the business and 12 release versions, it was time for VisionFM to evolve into the next generation market leader that has always been the hallmark of Vision Facilities Management’s product offerings.

From this knowledge and experience, we created FMDepartment.com, the next generation, best in class CAFM system and services offering that has once again impressed not only our existing clients, but the entire FM industry as well.

Because FMDepartment.com is a 100% web based subscription service (ASP - Application Service Provider), it has allowed us to meet our four main objectives when developing software. These objectives are:

  • Innovative Licensing: The ability to pay for the customer’s needs today and add users easily, at a very low cost as the system expands.
  • Flexible Application Modules: The ability for customers to pay for only the modules they need now and grow the system seamlessly at their own pace.
  • Reasonable Pricing:   There is no hardware to buy and no software to maintain.  Therefore a fast ROI is achieved through the low subscription cost.
  • Make the Software Easy to Use: FMDepartment.com’s interface is incredibly easy to use and links to industry standard software and databases such as AutoCAD, SQL, and Oracle.

FMDepartment.com is not just software; it is also a resource of services and information that make the customer’s implementation and day to day data updates fast and easy. By closely linking the software with industry leading resources, FMDepartment.com gives its customers the best chance for a successful implementation.

The world of facilities management in the workplace is changing on a daily basis. Vision Facilities Management is dedicated to creating real-world solutions from the latest technologies and the best resources and making them available to facilities management professionals. With a solid plan, a real strategy, great people, and an industrious research program, Vision Facilities Management looks forward to once again developing the next generation of CAFM software, the one after that, and the next one after that.
