Raleigh, N.C—August 22, 2006—FM:Systems, a leading provider of integrated workplace management systems (IWMS), today announced that Computer Associates (CA) will expand its implementation of FM:Interact to its worldwide facilities team. In addition to existing sites in North America, FM:Interact will now be utilized in Asia Pacific, Latin America, Europe, Middle East, and Asia.

“The implementation of FM:Interact throughout North America increased our ability to more accurately track space, people and moves which resulted in better space utilization and lower costs,” says Robert Paul, vice president of North American facilities for CA. “These results demonstrated to us that FM:Interact offered the flexibility and ease-of-use that we needed to help better manage CA’s facilities worldwide.”

Additional benefits that will result from this expansion include:

· Real-time reporting will support better decision making. Facilities teams worldwide will have the ability to run real-time reports on key metrics such as churn rates, space utilization, and space chargebacks.
· Centralized access will help improve customer service. All employees will have web-based access to view worldwide information such as the location of employees, departments and buildings. Employees will also be able to initiate and track status of move requests via the centralized system.
· Easy access for modifications will reduce the cost of maintaining accurate information. Web-based access to utilization and accurate move tracking will help keep CA’s global space inventory accurate and up-to-date.

FM:Interact, a modular suite of web-based applications, allows organizations to access and analyze facilities, real estate and maintenance information in real-time. By providing accurate, up-to-date information, workplace professionals can deliver better customer service, reduce costs, and improve productivity across the entire organization.

FM:Interact modules include Space Management, Lease and Property Management, Asset Management, Strategic Planning, Move Management, and Service Request Management.

“CA has taken a significant step toward improving its global facilities management operations and we are committed to supporting their efforts,” says Michael Schley, chief executive and founder of FM:Systems. “This enterprise expansion is further proof that FM:Interact can support the comprehensive needs of the facility management industry.”
