Meta (formerly Facebook) is experiencing unparalleled success while meeting the inherent challenges that come with rapid, large-scale growth over the last 12 years. A scalable, future-forward asset management system is an integral ingredient in their formula for success.
With industry-leading asset management software solutions firmly in place, Meta is enjoying next-level asset performance and reduced operational downtime and costs in its facilities.
01 Challenge.
Meta needed to stand up an end-to-end asset management and preventive maintenance management program for the entirety of its facilities. To do so, it would need to find a trusted partner that could develop a sustainable asset management solution for the near term, while also growing alongside the company as it continued to scale up.
It was not a take-your-breath-away undertaking at the time, considering that the first campus in Menlo Park, California, consisted of 10 buildings in 2010. But the immense scope of work would soon come into clearer focus as Meta began to amplify its presence and expand its portfolio of facilities to include new campuses sprawling the San Francisco Bay Area. Each one encompassing between 5-10 new buildings.
It was quite the undertaking when you consider the sheer breadth of assets in a facilities asset management program of this size. Every workstation and coffee machine. Every HVAC unit and elevator. Every piece of culinary equipment in every on-campus dining area. Every tree or shrub and every sign would need to be identified, captured, prioritized, and seamlessly uploaded to a brand-new enterprise-wide system.
