School districts know the stakes. Aging buildings, deferred maintenance, limited budgets, and growing expectations for transparency have made strategic asset management a necessity — not a nice-to-have. Yet many K-12 districts discover that implementing asset lifecycle management software is far more challenging than selecting a platform. The problem usually isn't the technology itself. It's the rollout.

How Intellis helps K-12 school districts turn field data into confident planning, stronger prioritization, and better capital decisions.

Learn what district leaders discussed at the Council of the Great City Schools (CGCS) conference, including best practices for K‑12 facilities planning, capital prioritization, and when to implement K-12 capital planning software.

Large urban school districts don't operate like small systems — and their facility management challenges aren't small either.

Capital planning decisions require more than a project list. These five questions can help K12 schools evaluate data quality, prioritize with confidence, and strengthen budget justification.

Intellis is pleased to announce that CEO Steven Warshaw will attend the Council of the Great City Schools Chief Operating Officers and Operational Directors Conference in Detroit, Michigan, April 21–24, 2026.

One of the biggest shifts we're seeing is moving asset data validation into the field — not after the fact. Curious how others are tackling this today?

Reactive vs. preventive vs. strategic maintenance — what's the difference? Preventive maintenance only works if it's backed by data-driven capital planning.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming facility management by improving decision-making, optimizing systems, and automating tasks. However, AI needs high-quality data, strategic implementation, and ongoing refinement. Effective use of AI can unlock efficiencies, but rushing in without proper data or training risks costly mistakes.

Managing school facilities isn’t just about fixing leaky roofs and scheduling HVAC checks—it’s about creating safe, efficient environments that support student success. But for facility leaders in K-12 districts, juggling tight budgets, aging buildings, and manual processes can feel overwhelming.
