Case Study: Berry College achieves proactive, data-driven facilities management with Brightly Software's Asset Essentials

Berry College achieves 100% facilities staff adoption with Brightly Software

Berry College, a private college with one of the world's largest contiguous campuses, faced significant challenges in managing its vast facilities. Their previous system lacked flexibility and mobile access, leading to reactive maintenance, inefficient inventory management, and manual, paper-based work order processes. To address this, they partnered with Brightly Software to implement Siemens Asset Essentials, a modern asset management solution.

Brightly Software's solution involved a carefully managed, multi-year implementation of Siemens Asset Essentials, which included comprehensive data input and a change-management strategy to ensure staff adoption. The results were transformative: the college achieved a 100% staff adoption rate, streamlined inventory management, and shifted to proactive maintenance. The mobile app drastically reduced response times and paperwork, and the rich data enabled smarter, data-driven decisions, even justifying the hiring of a new full-time employee.
