Brighton, May 3, 2011 - Planon Group is launching the next generation of facility management and corporate real estate software with the release of Planon Accelerator™. This powerful enterprise software solution is based on 25 years of industry-leading experience and the best practices of more than 1,800 real world implementations.Planon Accelerator™ is a true out-of-the-box solution with preconfigured processes that promise immediate return on investment.

Planon Accelerator™ levels the playing field by providing all organizations, regardless of size, the proven tools to effectively manage their real estate and workplace assets with the same sophistication and cost savings enjoyed by the world’s largest organizations.

“Organizations continue to demand reduced IWMS implementation times for a quicker return on their investment,” says Rob Schafer, research director at Gartner. “Minimizing integration and implementation time, effort and expense can also minimize project risk.”

“Industry-leading organizations have long understood that effectively managing your real estate and facilities assets can save you very large sums of money while drastically reducing your environmental impact,” says Planon Group founder and CEO Pierre Guelen. “By combining the experience of these organizations and making it extremely easy to implement the ready-to-use business processes, we are making this solution available to a much larger market.”

  • “Planon’s ability to listen, react and then adapt as our project progressed was second to none. We have now achieved all the objectives that we set at the beginning of the project. The ROI provided to clients is now undeniable, and can be quantified project by project.”
    – Christophe Carlier, Head of Processes Information System Project Management, Exprimm
