Space use classifications

You can configure how your space use classifications are set up.

The Maximo® Real Estate and Facilities application is delivered with a default set of space use classifications that includes those supported by IFMA and BOMA 1996. You might want to alter these Classifications to better fit your industry or business and reporting needs. During planning and setup of your system, you should review the space classifications that are delivered with the product and modify the data as necessary to reflect your industry, market, or business and reporting needs. After your space use classifications are set up, they can be applied across your portfolio for consistency and standardization. Changing a designation can be done at the classification level and the change is reflected across the portfolio. For example, you might want to change a space classification from Floor Common to Building Common.

The Area, Gross Area, and Space Classification can be populated from the IBM® Maximo Real Estate and Facilities CAD Integrator/Publisher.
