A few examples of those wide-ranging IWMS projects:

Technology Consolidation – JLL helped the University of Nebraska consolidate IWMS deployments, reducing costs and improving reliability. Through our partnership, the university implemented a unified Archibus cloud platform and developed mobile app support for maintenance technicians.

Reporting Efficiency – JLL assisted Transamerica to address its underperforming IWMS modules. Key outcomes included normalizing data elements, tracking total space costs, and achieving significant reductions in processing times while enhancing reporting efficiency.

Space Utilization – JLL supported a U.S. federal agency with their TRIRIGA system, implementing CRE best practices for improved space utilization and user adoption. This effort included introducing reservations and hoteling capabilities, accelerating decision-making, and achieving 99% system uptime.

Overall, JLL was awarded a market-leading score of 2.8/3.0 for its implementation capabilities for integrated workplace management systems (IWMS).
