  • Track space standard compliances and room availability
  • Compute occupancy rates
  • Provide visual representation of an entire facility broken down by floor or level to show how space is being used or assigned
  • See the square feet/meters of vacant space per floor, how much space is occupied by a single department on a given floor, and more.

Oracle’s Primavera Unifier Facilities and Asset Management is a powerful and easy-to-use solution for managing your properties and facilities. Available as a cloud- based or on-premise solution, it provides automation and flexibility to handle customer-specific facilities management needs. These span service requests, preventive and corrective maintenance, inventory and inspections as well as facility condition assessments and space management.

Like other Primavera Unifier solutions for capital projects, our Facilities and Asset Management solution provides task reminders, notifications, document management and visualization, messaging, and various-level reporting.

Maintenance Management

Maintenance management is essential to the smooth operation of any facility, keeping interruptions, system failures, and safety incidents to a minimum. The many preventive maintenance features in Primavera Unifier Facilities and Asset Management include best-in- class automated processes for: mobile-enabled service requests, dispatch and helpdesk processing, preventive and corrective work orders, preventive maintenance books and job plans. In addition, the solution encompasses meter readings; seasonal maintenance control; scheduled, meter-based and gauge-based maintenance; invoices and payments; material and parts inventory; material orders and receipts, moves, and adjustments; and more.

Stand Alone or Integrated

Primavera Unifier Facilities and Asset Management can be used stand alone or can be integrated to other enterprise maintenance management or asset management systems. The constantly changing state of information is managed through the Primavera Unifier workflow engine, which tracks all task assignments. Users can manage these elements through the product interface or via automated e-mails. Making things even easier, all maintenance work-related costs are rolled up to a central cost sheet normalized by a robust cost code structure. Here, users can drill down through facility management costs by each transaction for the entire facility or across the portfolio of facilities. All cost structures are easily configurable by an application administrator.

Primavera Unifier: Ultimate flexibility for project and asset lifecycle management

Facility Condition Assessment

Assessing facility condition is an important part of management and maintenance. This task includes inspecting, collecting, analyzing, and reporting on the condition of the entire facility or each building system (for example, foundation, roof construction, exterior enclosure, elevators and lifts, plumbing, HVAC, and more). Such assessments are primarily used to support decision-makers in their annual budgeting and maintenance project planning.

The Space Manager feature provides a flexible and configurable solution to create, classify, and organize building floors and spaces by types such as usable spaces, common spaces, vertical penetrations, gross exterior measured areas, and more.
