About Chardfm CAfm:

Chardfm CAfm allows clients to log calls online, by phone or a mobile device, whilst the helpdesk handles calls personally before virtually sending instructions wirelessly to multi-skilled technicians, connecting their geographical locations and skill-sets to the call. Technicians are provided with the necessary information: description of problem, relevant Health & Safety documentation, service history, asset data and graphical information enabling a streamlined and efficient response. Upon completion of the call, the technician closes the job with an on-site signature sending the report and documentation wirelessly back to the helpdesk team. Clients can track each stage of the process via the online digital dashboard, together with live KPI generation showing service levels.

Founded in 1990, FSI has long been acknowledged as a leader in the development and delivery of Facilities Management software systems.

Concept, its comprehensive range of software and services, is owned, developed, implemented and supported by FSI, who also provide full training in the use and business benefits of all aspects of the system. It is now used by clients of every size around the world.
