The paper presents a system for managing and monitoring environmental parameters in hospital facilities. It relies on existing data collected with a CAFM (Computer Aided Facility Management) system and allows granted users (such as CEO or Energy Manager) to monitor the ongoing energy consumption of a given activity area (Operating Rooms, Diagnostics, Intensive Care Units, Wards) in relation to the compliance to relevant threshold parameters. The system easily outputs aggregated data via PDF reporting.

“…Computer Aided Facility Management (CAFM) systems are decision-support tools based on Integrated Healthcare Facility Management Models (IHFMM) which provide KPIs on those processes which can affect the performance of the healthcare structure. These tools can be very useful for decision makers for performance and risk evaluations, business management and development [18,19].…”

This article presents a Computer Aided Facility Management informative system which can output Key Performance Indicators and quantitative parameters about the analysed healthcare facility. The designed system is a self-sufficient application able to manage and analyse digital plans of hospital buildings with no need of third-party plugins or licenses. The system maps hospital’s inner organisation, destinations of use and environmental comforts giving quantitative, qualitative and graphical reports. The core database is linked to other existing hospital databases, so that the system can act as a central control cockpit. Outputs can be used by top-management and decisional staff as a decision-support tool in order to improve hospital’s structure and organisation and to reduce the major workflow risks. Furthermore, many plug-ins and modules have been developed through the years which can be easily linked to the main application thanks to its REST architecture, and which contribute to a complete analysis and management of the healthcare facilities.
