Integrated Facilities Solutions (IFS) provides digital construction documentation services. The company’s “flagship” construction handover documentation solution, IFS Digital Project Manual, has been implemented on 250 projects valued at over ?5 billion.
IFS said: “With traditional paperbased health and safety files delivered in banker boxes, and random digital files on CD, clients often find the files have rarely gone through a meaningful approvals process, and are delivered late, with inaccuracies and omissions. Construction teams will often have gone off-site, leaving the client with an unsatisfactory resource. This problem has prompted clients to review their estates strategies and to incorporate a more proactive methodology for handover of the health and safety file. “We provide a specialised technical service during construction, delivering a dynamic Digital Health & Safety File on project completion. We utilise our unique ISO 9001:2008 quality management system incorporating a proven review and approvals process, and ensure the file is delivered on time.” A secure application, IFS Digital Project Manual allows multiple users to “gain a complete understanding” of the building’s design, intended performance, and services, and accurate operational/facilities data.
