Facility Navigator is comprised of the following nine modules:

Features:

• Facility Navigator allows large facilities with complex infrastructures and assets to run seamlessly.
• Facility Navigator enables companies to manage space and engineering infrastructure using one integrated solution.
• Facility Navigator provides quick responses to everyday operational queries as well as crisis situations, to ensure efficient utilization of space and assets.

Facility Navigator (FN) is a comprehensive facility infrastructure management system that provides granular CAD-based graphic and text information. This information includes the infrastructure and assets’ physical locations, combined with information on dependencies and inter-relations. The infrastructure’s physical and logical inter-relationships are mapped, providing cross-system and cross-floor engineering analysis and insights.

All infrastructure layers and elements are represented and instantly retrievable via user-defined views. Information presented is based on the tool’s comprehension of physical and logical connections. Key to Facility Navigator’s powerful diagnostics capabilities is its integrated view of online (via Scada and similar systems) and offline infrastructure elements and the mapping of real connectivity between objects.

Columbus’ solutions are used in hospitals, university campuses, military forces, airports and commercial buildings worldwide.

As a result of its intelligent processing engine and comprehensive database, Facility Navigator enables the execution of ‘what-if’ scenarios.. These simulations may be run for operational purposes, trouble-shooting or training. As an enterprise-management solution, Facility Navigator can interface with other enterprise-oriented products such as ERP, building-automation systems, asset management tools and computerized maintenance management solutions (CMMS) from other vendors..

Facility Navigator unveils a wealth of knowledge about one’s facility, otherwise concealed in information silos. Information relating to floors and engineering infrastructure plans are instantly available,with other decision support information. It provides a unique and comprehensive perspective of one’s facility from its initial design stages to its on-going maintenance and operations, offering powerful cost-saving applications. Facility Navigator’s advanced search and analysis capability utilizes graphic and text information, providing an immediate and easy-to-understand solution to complex issues.

This unique approach offers advanced cost-saving applications including space utilization, equipment maintenance and resolution of unexpected technical issues. Facility Navigator also provides information to help organizations manage their facilities through its entire life cycle, from planning and design through operations and maintenance.
