Case Study: Berry College achieves proactive, data-driven facilities management with Siemens Asset Management Software

Berry College achieves 100% facilities staff adoption with Siemens Asset Management Software

Berry College, a private college with one of the world's largest contiguous campuses, faced significant challenges in managing its 127 buildings across 27,000 acres. Its previous system lacked flexibility and mobile access, leading to reactive maintenance, inefficient inventory management, and manual, paper-based work order processes. To address this, the college partnered with Siemens Asset Management Software to implement its Asset Essentials solution.

The solution from Siemens involved a carefully managed, multi-year rollout of the Asset Essentials software and mobile app, supported by a strong change-management strategy. This enabled Berry College to shift from a reactive to a proactive maintenance culture, streamline inventory management, and empower staff with real-time data. The results included a 100% staff adoption rate, the data-driven justification to hire a new full-time employee, drastically reduced response times, and the elimination of countless hours previously spent on administrative paperwork.
