A Facilities Manager’s Guide to Asset Visibility
Ask any facilities manager:
How many assets are on your estate?
Now ask:
- Where are they?
- What condition are they in?
- Are they compliant?
- Are they even in your CAFM?
If those answers aren’t immediate, you’ve got a visibility issue.
And that’s not just a data problem—it’s a risk, cost, and compliance problem too.
🔍 What Is “Asset Visibility” Really?
Asset visibility means having:
- 📋 A complete, current asset list
- 📍 Clear location for every asset
- 🏷️ Unique tags (not duplicated)
- ⚙️ Maintenance history and service schedules
- 🧾 Integration with your reporting and CAFM systems
When you know what’s on site—and where it is—you can plan, budget, and respond with confidence.
❌ What Happens Without It?
We’ve seen:
- PPMs scheduled for assets that don’t exist
- Callouts for systems no one knows how to find
- Entire buildings left off lifecycle reviews
- Fire doors assumed to be compliant—with no record
- Teams wasting hours locating or verifying plant
And in every case, it boils down to missing, misaligned, or outdated data.

You didn’t cause the visibility issues.
They came from handovers, legacy systems, and years of underinvestment.
What matters is fixing it—and we can help.
