New York University (NYU)

Founded in 1831, New York University is the largest private university in the United States. The University, which is composed of 14 schools, colleges, and divisions, occupies five major centers in Manhattan. It operates branch campus and research programs in other parts of the United States and abroad, as well as study abroad programs in more than 25 countries. New York University is also one of the largest employers in New York City, with over 16,000 employees.

NYU has used Facility Navigator since 2005 to manage 15 million square feet of space across 160 buildings. The platform serves as the central system for space management, safety & preventive as well as asset management. It also feeds other applications in the organization with essential information related to space distribution and ownership.

NYU has also purchased the Columbus’ Automatic Drawing Recognition tool to streamline the process of maintaining vast amounts of information, easily accessible in real-time to the organization’s maintenance personnel.
