June 13th, 2014 - The University of Portsmouth is ranked among the leading universities in the world and has a population of over 22,000 students and 2,500 staff. As a key part of the drive for Health & Safety compliance and continuing business improvement, the University Estates Department required comprehensive functionality from an integrated solution with minimal configuration and a fast implementation: Accelerator.
The Estates Department, responsible for approximately 1.5 million sq ft of buildings, faced an increasing need to bring processes including asset management, helpdesk, work order management, stock control, planned preventative maintenance and space management together in an integrated solution. The solution, that includes Planon Mobile Field Services for reactive maintenance work execution went live at the end of March 2014.
