Effective school facility management is crucial for fostering productive learning environments. Well-managed facilities ensure safety, comfort, and functionality for students, teachers, and staff. However, due to the complexity of modern campuses—from energy management to maintenance tracking—many schools struggle to keep up with these challenges. That's where technology steps in to streamline operations and improve efficiency.
