What is Facility Capital Planning?
Facility Capital Planning is a process for distributing funds for future projects as a part of the company's long-term plans. The International Facility Management Association (IFMA) defines capital planning as a strategic facility plan (SFP) encompassing "an entire portfolio of owned or leased space that sets strategic facility goals based on the organization's strategic (business) objectives. The strategic facilities goals, in turn, determine short-term tactical plans, including prioritization of, and funding for, annual facility projects."
Why is Facility Capital Planning important?
Facility capital planning is essential because it allows facility managers to pinpoint immediate expenditures and forecast future costs. In addition, it gives you a clear picture of how your institution can maximize its funding for building and infrastructure maintenance and improvement.
Why do you need Facility Capital Planning Software?
It would be best if you had facility capital planning software because it enables you to analyze data from a Facility Condition Assessment to develop strategic capital plans for your institution.
With facility capital planning software, it is possible to streamline reporting for the entire useful lifecycle of all building and facility assets. You can model asset purchases, budget projects, and strategically develop long-range plans.
