Executive Summary
This report provides corporate real estate and facilities management executives with practical guidance on how they can leverage their IWMS platform to support their response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It sets out how firms can deploy, configure or extend their IWMS to support infection control procedures and social distancing in buildings which remain open or are re-opening following government-enforced lockdowns. As the COVID-19 shutdown triggers an economic downturn, firms can also use their IWMS to support cost control programmes such as capex deferral, lease negotiations and real estate consolidation. The report draws on detailed Verdantix research on IWMS platforms and our recent interviews with IWMS providers on their COVID-19 support tools.
