Since 2016, the partnership with FacilityConneX has provided KRP with over 35,000 equipment checks per day, produced tens of thousands of dollars in identified savings, increased operational efficiency and has driven faster time to resolution.
The FacilityConneX software solution is currently being utilized on the 411 Legget building, and will now be used to monitor an additional 380,000 square feet across two new buildings including 303 Terry Fox Drive and 2500 Solandt.
