Specialist FM provider Cloudfm says it has embarked on a significant restructure of the business in preparation for a more advanced FM Industry as the UK comes out of lockdown.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a huge appetite for technology to be applied to the challenges of operating facilities. In response, Cloudfm has greatly accelerated its existing programme of new technology offerings, encompassing artificial intelligence, machine learning, augmented-reality tools and its own manufactured and patented hardware.

The company claims that this accelerated programme has created a major boost to the automation of existing processes. The re-Imagined Cloudfm will now be able to offer occupiers facility management services at a greater scale and at a faster rate than before. 

Since March 15th 2020, Cloudfm has continued to support its client base through these unprecedented times as well as welcoming new clients on board, despite the crisis having an impact on many clients’ revenue. 

Jeff Dewing, CEO of Cloudfm, said: “No business could have anticipated the scale and impact of Covid-19 and its economic consequences. The decision to restructure the business has been extremely tough but these changes are necessary and will best prepare Cloudfm to adapt to the new reality, as we continue to support our clients and develop our technology solutions. 

“It is with great sadness that the restructure will have an impact on so many of our colleagues, and their families. Our number one focus will be to work tirelessly in the first instance to help those colleagues find new roles as fast as possible.”
