FM starts new project tagging assets with QR codes

Facilities Management Student Employees are QR coding various asset types around academic facilities as part of a project to implement a new module in Facilities Management鈥檚 maintenance management software (AiM). These students are also applying the 1 inch square QR code stickers to the door jambs in entryways of offices, corridors, classrooms, and other location types as well as taking pictures in those spaces where able to do so. This important step assists FM with:

  1. Determining proper location of assets in the field
  2. Ascertaining the condition of our facilities to prioritize future projects
  3. Assist our efforts to understand how the space is used

Students will knock to determine if locations are occupied and will introduce themselves and their purpose for those that are interested. Students will not enter classrooms that are in use and will return later. Please take a second to say Hi when you see them.  If you have additional questions contact Ryan.Cullup@wwu.edu on the FM Asset Management Team.
