    1.0 INTRODUCTION

    In any institution of higher education, space within its organisation is the most expensive

    assets owned for it is essential to the performance of virtually all of their activity. Withspiraling construction cost, bad economic condition and increased enrolments, there is

    ever increasing pressure on higher education institutions to manage their use of existing

    space more effectively before constructing new, costly buildings. Space management isan important strategic and operational activity that provides an essential role in building a

    balanced, competitive and sustainable business. Many universities have started to use

    advanced facility management software in managing space to optimise its utilisation andimprove existing management system (Gabriel, 2003). Examples of the software used are

    Aperture, Insite Visual FM, Archibus/FM, Omnis Database and UNSM Access Database.

    According to Gabriel (2003), the last decade witnesses rapid developments in computer

    hardware prior to internet revolution. This in turn paved the way for more sophisticatedsoftware applications, in the field of facilities management (FM), in terms of computer

    aided drafting (CAD), computer aided facility management (CAFM), computer

    integrated facility management (CIFM) and total infrastructure and facilities management

    (TIFM) systems. Archibus/FM is a CAFM system, completes with integrated suite ofapplications that addresses all aspects of facilities and infrastructure management. Using

    advanced application like Archibus/FM will ensure that its space data is easilymaintained in such a manner that assures its consistency and accuracy. UTM is currently

    facing problems in space management and maintenance works due to unsystematic

    achieving of space information. There are difficulties in retrieving and analysing space

    related information to assist space management works. Despite possessing Archibus/FM,UTM has never utilised it for space management works due to the lack of skills to

    explore the functions of the system.

    This study is structured as follow as: the next section presents shortly discussesspace management and information system. In section 3 presents the introduction of the

    case study including background information of FAB, and then the next section describes

    the application of Archibus/FM for space management in UTM. Section 5 presents theconclusions, recommendations, and suggestions for future studies which emanated from

    the findings.

    2.0 SPACE MANAGEMENT AND INFORMATION SYSTEM

    2.1 Space Management

    Space management is more than evaluation of space needs. It relates to space planning,

    management process and space utilization in determining exactly how many people willthe facilities adequately support. The primary aim in space management is to make the

    most efficient and effective use of space, equipment and furniture, during the present

    time as well as in the future; and to provide an environment which enable the largest costand most important asset of the organisation, its people to operate (Abdul Rahman,

    1999). According to Rourke and Brooks (1966), the allocation of space is a matter of

    distributing scarce or limited resources and it involves decisions about programs andpriorities. Space management in the institution of higher education should translate the

    organisation objectives into spatial relationships of its functions, together with the needs

    of the people who perform the functions, within a given or proposed accommodation

    space.

    In managing the use of space in physical buildings, three concepts are essential:

    Space inventory to know how much is space available.

    Measuring utilisation knowing how effectively space is used.

    Projecting future space needs estimating how much space of what typeswill be needed as some point in the future.

    2.2 Space Management in University

    In order to ensure cost effective and reliable delivery of services in the university

    environment, the adoption of the best practice of space management is very important,

    covering the planning, acquisition, operation, maintenance and disposal in the assetswhole life cycle. The university's objective is to maximise all useable space while

    providing an environment which supports its activities and creativity.

    Increasingly the learning place needs to be responsive to the changing demands of aleading university, and so space should be designed to be flexible and planned on the

    basis of functional in order to encourage effective utilization. The key aim of space

    management is to effectively manage a dynamic and limited resource in order to supportacademic activity, minimize cost and achieve maximum and efficient design, planning

    and use of the institutions space.

    According to Space Management in Higher Education Report (2002), two

    prerequisites for increased efficiency are:

    Sophisticated data analysis

    A space management champion at high level within the organisation, to progress

    change over a protracted time period.With increasing demand on existing available space in university, space

    management has to look into the area of space utilisation. Essentially, the administration

    of space utilisation falls into the following categories:

    Space Analysis and Planning Assignment and Scheduling of Facilities for Academic Classes

    Assignment and Coordination of Facilities for Purposes of Office, Research andStorage Space

    Administration of Facility Utilisation for Purposes Other Than Regular Credit Classes

    2.3 Types of Space

    Academic Space

    i. Department Specific Space - Space allocated specially for department

    such as certain laboratories only suitable for certain department based

    on certain functions use and users only.ii. Department/ Division Important Space - Every department owns this

    area and priority is given to the said departmentiii. Booking Space - These are space that can be used by any department

    in faculty

    Utility/ Public Use Space - Utility space is a public facility area to cater for

    students and staffs for each faculty.

    Non Assignable Area - According to FICM (1992), non assignable area is

    area which cannot be used for any purposes and it is part of unusable building

    space for activities, but are vital in general operations of building.

    2.4 Space Management Planning

    Among the fundamental planning for space management are as below:

    Total available space

    Type of space

    Space characteristics such dimension, shape, location and size.

    Space use Several criterions need to take into consideration are included suitability,

    cultural, working mode and occupancy mode.

    2.5 Space Standard

    Space management is about using standards and benchmarks and planning models to

    measure how well space is being used and to plan for future needs. Standards are a

    bottom up approach and define the area required to perform a particular function oractivity.

    financial data/space should be used to compare the space use of

    different departments, faculties or research group to their

    performances and to each other.

    9) New ways of using space Universities should rethink their use of space in the light of new

    working practices such as open plan offices, shared laboratories,permanent desks, quiet offices, physical and virtual workspace,

    temporary and permanent spaces.

    10) Change management: Should

    make all university staffs to aware thatspace is an expensive resource.

    The benefits from changes in space management policy and

    processes can be maximized by a programme of changemanagement designed to engage staff commitment to efficient and

    effective space use.

    3.4 Space Issue in FAB

    Among issues exist in FAB are:

    Difficulty in allocating space as space demand changes in time.

    Teaching and learning process affected.

    Work processes in current space management takes a lot of time andunnecessary procedures as it involves manual system.

    Does not have comprehensive space data in assisting space planning.

    Changes made to space area like renovation, extension and refurbishment

    has not been updated over the years.

    3.5 Justification for Using Archibus/FM for Space Management in UTM

    Nadila Hamidi (2006) also mentioned that one of the four important processes of space

    management in UTM entails the use of Archibus/FM Space Management Module formanaging its space.

    The space management works requires three types of data, which are:

    i. Attribute data - space informationii. Spatial data - AutoCAD drawings

    iii. Graphical data - image files.

    With this software, all three typed of data is linked together and can be used at the sametime. This makes many work processes a lot easier and more efficient.

    4.0 RESEARCH ANALYSIS

    Space Management module in Archibus/FM will be used for this purpose. An appraisalon Space Management module in Archibus/FM is conducted to thoroughly understand

    the functions of the module before application. Finally, the results will be reviewed to

    find out whether the application provides any improvement in existing works.

    4.1 Introduction of Archibus/FM Space Management Module

    Archibus/FM Space Management module is a decision support tool that helps to optimize

    the use of space within your facility. The module can help to solve typical space

    management issues in different areas as shown in Figure 4.1 below. Through centralizedproperty and space information, the system is able to:

    i. Generate reports that graphically identify types and duration of space usage.

    ii. Analyze different space utilization scenarios to more efficiently plan for futureexpansion or consolidation.

    4.2 Space Inventory Method

    The module offers two methods in creating space inventory, which are Composite

    Inventory Method and All Room Inventory Method.Composite inventory method tracks

    each type of space information in its own table and on its own drawing layer.Users can determine the level of detail of space inventory needed using this method.

    All room inventory method stores sets of differing information in one table and then

    classifies the type of area. It can be divided as the followings Figure 4.2.

    4.3 The Process for Using Space Management Module

    The standard process for using the module is start with goals determination and at secondstage is perform data audit. After that, developing facilities drawings and database is

    defined. A pilot project occurred right after the third step. This pilot project helps to

    analyze result and review the implementation plan. By then, data scheduled and assign

    responsibilities created. Next, a real project take place before it is continuously updated;the data must be up to date.

    4.4 Maintaining Space Inventory

    Overtime, space needs changes and need to do some renovation, extension or new

    buildings to meet the needs of users. The examples of applied function are shown below.

    Figure 4.3: Database Records of Level 2, Block 11, FAB

    Pictures related to space such as type of room and picture of personnel can also berecorded in the database for reference and record purpose. Figure 4.3 below show the

    information on personnel of FAB.

    Figure 4.4: Information on Personnel

    The personnel feature enables to store personnel information and linked to spaceinventory. It can analyse and produces reports pertaining personnel information located in

    the building. Additionally, users can further use the facility drawings to graphically

    represent furniture and equipment in the existing space inventory using Furniture and

    Equipment module.

    4.5 Space Assignment and Allocation

    The analysis results can also be highlighted according to type of information needed.

    Example can be seen as Figure 4.5 and 4.6 below.

    Figure 4.6: Highlight Room by Type

    4.6 Space Planning and Utilization

    Strategic manager uses space inventories generated to make decisions regarding space

    expansion or reduction, space relocation, space utilization and so forth and defined by

    Rentable/ Usable ratio. Higher efficiency rate indicate that little space is devoted to

  • 8/6/2019 04 Space Management - Archibus

    13/17

    hallways, corridors, rest rooms, mechanical closets and other areas that cannot be used

    such as to house employees. Among important reports that can also be used in space

    planning works includes:i. Room Type and Category Analysis

    ii. Departmental Room Analysis

    iii. Room Standard Analysisiv. All the above analysis by room percentage

    v. Remaining Area

    vi. Occupiable Vacant Roomvii. All Vacant Room

    viii. Room Classification.

    4.7 Space Bookings for Academic Purpose

    One of the most important features of the module is the room reservation feature. It can be used to assist space bookings work process. An example of the use of room

    reservations is shown in Figure 4.7 below:

    Figure 4.7: Room Reservation Features

    4.8 Maintenance and Preparation of Space

    The work process can be extended to Building and Operations module later for morecomplex space maintenance purpose such as work order and maintenance of equipments

    and furniture.

    4.9 Initial Assessment on the ApplicationThe application of the module is tested by space related personnel from different facultiesin UTM to give initial assessments on the application of the module in space

    management. The objective is to find out whether the module in the system provides any

    improvement in terms of space management from their perspectives.

    4.10 Limitation of the Application Module

    From the initial assessment, there is several limitation of the application in providing

    improvement for space management. According to some space users, the limitations are

  • 8/6/2019 04 Space Management - Archibus

    14/17

    requires a full publish of the drawing at every point of update, certain information in

    records must be keyed in before other information in same database record can be

    inserted and the system does not centrally manage space inventory at faculty level for thisapplication. Thus, it is difficult to use by different space related users.

    4.11 Conclusion

    Archibus/FM Space Management module has provided a number of useful functions formore efficient space management. But, the module can only assist in space management

    works but is unable to completely replace the overall space management work processes.

    The summary of the Application of Archibus/FM Space Management Module is show as intable 4.1.

    5.0 CONCLUSION

    5.1 FindingsA study on how to apply the Archibus/FM system for space management in UTM has

    been achieved. Investigating the current space management in UTM, exploring how

    Space Management module in Archibus/FM can applied for more efficient spacemanagement in UTM and initial assessment on the improvement in UTMs space

    management works using the application have been successfully acquired. Looking into

    the scope of space management works has given a considerable understanding of howspace is managed in UTM and what is required to improve the current practice.

    UTM practices space management in a way that suits its responsibility as the

    organization that supports the delivery of services to cater the need of its many differentusers. However, the absence of an information system for more efficient space

  • 8/6/2019 04 Space Management - Archibus

    15/17

    management has been a drawback for the university. Exploring the ways to apply the

    system for more efficient space management in UTM is based on the requirement of the

    work processes involved in current practice. An appraisal on the Space Managementmodule in Archibus/FM has given an in-depth understanding of the functions available in

    the module.

    An initial assessment on the application of the module in space management isobtained from different faculties in UTM to further prove the capabilities of the system.

    The general scenario of this research is that of a space management champion who is

    responsible in elevating the efficiency of an organisation that is responsible in spacemanagement. Thus, a ways has been proposed to apply Archibus/FM system for current

    space management. In doing so, a thorough understanding on the scope of work, work

    processes and the functions of space as a support service to university should be acquired,

    hence outlining a more efficient space management that fulfils the organisationsrequirement.

    5.2 Recommendations

    For more effective implementation, there is a need for a clear guideline on how space is

    managed in UTM. At the moment, space is managed at faculty level and centrally byPejabat Harta Bina. It is important to manage all the space information and its activities

    centrally to ensure all space in university are taken care of and used efficiently.There is also a need to develop a space management department comprised of a senior

    management champion who oversees the overall space management in whole university

    as mentioned in good space management practice guidelines and also personnel who are

    knowledgeable about the system application to maintain and manage the spaceinformation and space use. Besides that, personnel involved in space management should

    be given an in-depth exposure on how to use the system for their daily work process so

    that full use of the system can be achieve. Users can later further expand the use of othermodules related to space in the system such as Building and Operations module, Strategic

    Master Planning module, Furniture and Equipment Management module and so forth for

    more effective management of university.

    5.3 Future Research

    The following are the recommendation for future research:

    i. Further research on the application of the system need to be studied atcentral level (all space is managed by one department) in improving the overall

    space management in UTM with regards to user requirements and work

    processes.

    ii. Further studies on the application of other related modules in

    Archibus/FM to enable further application to make full use of the system for more

    effective space management.iii. This system offers the function to decentralized space management in

    university using web-enabled technology. Further study on how this method to
