A quick overview of dashboards: Space Profile: This dashboard determines square footages and compares allocations by organizational assignment, uses, function, locations or any available combination of filters. Data only includes the 'In Use' lifecycle, 'Owned' ownership, current facilities and current spaces. Space per FTE: provides comparison of FTE count is connected to organizational space assignments by division. Calculations are based on total FTE across each division, not on staff specifically assign to specific spaces. Building Profile: provides a quick view of essential metrics of one or more selected buildings. Data only includes the 'In Use' lifecycle, 'Owned' ownership, current buildings and current spaces. Campus Profile: provides a high level overview of the available space resources and their highest consumptions (Uses, Functions, Classification, Division, etc.). Data excludes 'Retired' lifecycle and non-current facilities. Facilities List: customizable list of facilities to view quick facts relating to facility type, ownership, life cycle, classification and construction date, and can be used to quickly determine which as well as determining a list of space in which a selected Division is using. Data excludes 'Retired' lifecycle and non-current facilities. |
