December 2017

2017 ‐ Issue 4 Each year when the me comes to wri ng my opening gambit for our MASS Media Christmas Edi on I am forcibly reminded of the goals, objec ves, ideas and promises that were put forward 12 months previously. New Year resolu ons, like Rebellions, are built on hope. At the dawn of 2017 we hoped to bring some new ideas and fresh faces into our organisa on and as the sun begins to set on this year’s horizon I am pleased to be able to say that, in retrospect, our hopes have been turned to reality.

This MASS Media edi on theme follows on from EDGE: Connect in so far as it dials into our focus upon Assets. Tracking, managing and maintaining ASSETS has been a constant point of conversa on which we have had with clients over the past year and I believe that a key part of the recent success of our CONNECT event was it’s focus upon this fundamental area of business opera on.

At MASS our Assets have always been our people, and following on from the objec ves laid down at the start of 2017, I am pleased to have welcomed several new staff members into our Team over the course of the year.

Hopefully many of you will have begun working with Emma, who has been brought on‐board to help the running of Projects from a coordina on and management perspec ve. Since being well and truly thrown in at the deep end, in being asked to conduct several large upgrade and new installa on projects, Emma has proved this addi onal Project Management ac vity to be a real success for MASS and clients alike.

On the sales front we have placed, and through 2018 will con nue to place, a stronger emphasis upon gaining New Business. Beyond the obvious I hope that in bringing in some New Clients and new user faces, we will help to expand your MASS/ARCHIBUS networking

opportuni es and allow for be er, more varied case studies and events in the future. To help us achieve this we have redeveloped the Sales Team which now consists of three addi onal members of staff, Vicky, Saba and Suzy, who are targeted with both assis ng our exis ng client needs and also seeking out new opportuni es for the future, hopefully in new business sectors that we have not necessarily considered before.

The only downside is that our Annual Christmas Away Day has now suddenly become a lot more expensive!!

Of course it would be remiss of me to close out the last MASS Media edi on of the year without men oning some notable award winners from 2017. Congratula ons to Dan Chicken (Dis nguished User), David Malcolm (Golden Circle), Richard Kimber (IWMS visionary of the Year), Bre Plant and Helen Hill (Applica on Excellence) for winning their ARCHIBUS USER Awards at the Interna onal NEXUS Conference in Maryland, US.

And not forge ng our very own Eve Feeney, who is publisher in chief for all our Marke ng material (incl. MASS Media) and Events Manager, in recently winning the Business Partner Engagement award for Social Media and Marke ng Excellence.

I hope you enjoy reading this MASS Media Edi on and make good use of the ChristMASS recipes offered within!!

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2018.

Alongside this MASS Media edi on is our second produc on of a MASS Calendar

ready for 2018 and also a Christmas card just for you.

The calendars come as a Christmas gi from everyone here at MASS. We hope

you love these calendars as much as we do, and that as well as serving a great

purpose, they brighten up your desk and the jokes make you laugh as much as

we did.

(Eve mainly though!)

If you especially love yours, a certain month or a certain joke please let us know!

Running ac vity ‐ Tracy Knight (Office Manager)

“I am a serious runner. If you had told me 12 months ago I would be saying that out loud I would

have laughed at you. 9am every Saturday morning you will find me at the local Parkrun event with

400 other locals. Ini ally I just wanted to finish the 5k, then to run it under 40 minutes, last week I

got a new PB of 33.50. Now I’m hungry for a me under 30 minutes, my Garmin is strapped to my

wrist 24/7 and my Personal Trainer is on speed dial. I run 2‐3 mes a week, o en before the birds

wake up, and am currently focused on interval speed training.”

My trip to India ‐ Sanjay Kumar (SQL DBA & Developer )

“It was both Diwali fes val and there was a wedding in my family in October. So, it was a very good excuse to visit

India! As soon as we arrived in New Delhi, we could smell the sense of fes val within the environment. Shops were

filled with lights, Diyas, candles, different kinds of sweets and home decora on items. There were shops selling toys

and Hindu God and Goddess idols made of clay. The whole place was full of happiness and pure excitement. In the

evening we did Diwali Pooja (prayer) and had some fireworks.

Then there was the wedding. It’s been a long me since we a ended an Indian wedding and my children have never

a ended one before either so they were very excited to see the wedding in all its glory. It was a very lavish wedding.

The venue covered an area of more than 40,000 sq. . and every last bit was decorated. There were more than 250

food items to serve to all guests. I have never a ended such a lavish wedding before, and there’s been quite a lot! It

was great fun to see the wedding and a end all the ceremonies. It’s always lovely to visit India!”

New starter ‐ Alison Dent

Alison previously worked for Mantle Ltd (business solu ons company) as a recep onist and

a Business administrator ‐ MASS’ sister company. So even though Alison isn't new to the

building, she is however, new to MASS. She has now taken on the role as Accounts Assistant

here and is taking to the role really well. If you haven't heard from her yet, I am sure you

will in the new future in one way or another. You can get to know Alison a li le be er in our

‘Ge ng to know the people behind MASS’ on page 19 in this edi on.

Diwa-

The wedding, my wife and I!

Old College

2017 saw the second year of EDGE: Connect, and it was

as big a success as the last. Again, we hosted it in our own

Conference Centre in Wokingham. This event was a well

forma ed two‐day conference that combined client

networking opportuni es alongside a second day of

training. Unlike the other EDGE events, EDGE: Connect is

specifically directed at stakeholders and system owners,

but pre y much everyone can come and not feel too out

of their depth! We had a good turnout from the

ARCHIBUS community, clients from the North and South

of the UK which was great for networking.

DAY 1 – Registra on started at 9:00, breakfast pastries,

tea, coffee and fruit juices at the ready. Delegates, as

always, were provided with MASS merchandise which

included gi s like our new travel mugs and also a name

badge, of course. Everyone arrived on me so we

kick‐started the day on schedule and started off with the

event welcome.

A er the standard housekeeping informa on, we always

like the delegates to introduce themselves properly to

the whole group. We took a different approach to this

ac vity this year which went down well. Each person

introduced themselves to another member of the group

with their name, their organisa on and job role, and

when they last performed well in their job. A er they

conversed with one another each pair took it in turns to

introduce their partner to the group and vice versa. This

is a great way to kick‐start the networking and to ‘break

the ice’. The day’s agenda was then briefly covered but

each sec on was introduced throughout the day when

needed.

We commenced day 1 with a keynote speech from David

Malcolm...

David is the ARCHIBUS system owner for Sellafield Ltd,

and also the Contract Lead for the FM Services contract.

Sellafield's current contract runs over a 7 year

period. David’s role means he has the responsibility for

understanding how Sellafield take BIM into

Opera ons. He spoke about what is like to work in his

role and some problems and cri cisms he some mes

faces.

“A cri cism I feel some mes is that I am evangelical about

ARCHIBUS, and yes some mes I may get a bit

enthusias c - but actually I am passionate about my job,

and ARCHIBUS is about the best tool I have to drive

progress in my profession. My profession is Facili es

Management and it is the framework around which every

business hangs...

...It’s very easy to denigrate us - “real engineers don’t

maintain toilets”, and everyone thinks they could do our

job be er “how hard can it be”. But no one can do

without us. So – yes - I am passionate about exposing the

value of what we do. Passionate about making us feel

be er about ourselves, and passionate about ge ng us

to understand our worth.”

EDGE: Connect 2017 

EDGE: Connect 2017 

He described the size, the importance and the different

levels of the industry and how it’s built around what

he likes to call ‘The FM dichotomy’. David’s speech was

somewhat upli ing as he suggested that we should

always be proud of the work we achieve in our industry.

“…- and my argument is that none of us should be less

than proud about what we do – it’s complex and valuable.

But I am afraid too o en that is what we see;

we talk ourselves down.”

He went on to speak about the importance of an up‐to‐

date register and maintenance history and the new vision

created in 2017, the Mi e model. He included lots of

comedic illustra ons and quota ons, a personal favourite

being one from Billy Connolly. He covered the importance

of data, the challenges Sellafield have set themselves and

The Compliance Module. However, one of the main topics

he covered was BIM.

Sellafield FM services are actually provided by a

contractor, Mi e, but when the contract was let in 2012,

neither party had heard of BIM. He discussed how even

though they didn’t really know what to do with it or what

they were doing, it somehow worked none the less. The

importance of BIM for Sellafield in par cular and in the

FM world, was heavily emphasised. David also stressed

the significance of networking, which fits in well with this

event! It ended on a note that was expressed throughout,

posi vity and encouragement.

A er a quick break we had our first User Presenta on

which was delivered by Simon Watkins from University of

St Andrews. Simon is Assistant Director (Technical

Services) at the University and his presenta on was tled

‘From Fire to a Smart Campus’ which covered ‘Asset

Management Dirty Laundry’, the tale of the stuffy lecture

theatre and a building fire. It finished with the goals of “A

Smart Campus with Intelligent Buildings.”

Simon spoke about St Andrews largest lecture theatre and

how it had fallen out of favour with lecturers due to air

quality, temperature and comfort issues. Given the

importance of the Lecture Theatre to teaching, it was

disappoin ng to discover that it wasn’t being used to best

effect, given the ever present pressures on teaching

space. Following inves ga ons into the causes, they

discovered a number of issues that illustrated the need

for improvements to their maintenance processes.

The problems with the Theatre revealed the need for

improved func onality checks, improved servicing

instruc ons, lifecycle management of their Mechanic and

Electrical (M&E) assets and the need for be er quality

service history. While they were servicing the Air Handling

Unit, they had focussed on ensuring the Air Handling Unit

itself was func oning, but had lost sight of the need to

ensure the service was func onal from an End Users

perspec ve. i.e. it was actually ven la ng the room. The

Air Handling unit had been running perfectly, but for

various reasons, they had been unaware of a filter in the

system that was completely clogged, which meant they

had been was ng me, funds and energy for a number of

years. He went on to explain the many Asset

Management lessons that had been learned. Examples

were having up to date space drawings, appropriate

servicing instruc ons, good asset records, including

service history and func onality checks.

EDGE: Connect 2017 

A later issue with a mechanical asset turned into a key

defining moment for the University. This was when they

unfortunately experienced a fire in a mechanical

extrac on system at the science building and the

inherent risks associated with fire increased the focus on

improving asset informa on and asset management.

Thankfully the fire was discovered and dealt with quickly

before it caused too much damage, and no one was hurt.

However, similar lessons to this incident were iden fied

and have led to a significant review of the informa on

held about M&E assets, servicing, instruc ons, and they

have plans to update their CAFM system to support a

number of improved maintenance processes across the

board.

Simon then spoke to us about ‘Smart Campus’ – this is a

University ini a ve which is primarily about reducing

carbon and climate impacts by lowering energy

consump on within the University’s teaching, residen al

and professional services spaces. Simon explained that

although the University controlled its hea ng systems in

the spaces using a Building Energy Management System,

the control of temperature was based on simple me

scheduling. Rooms are currently being heated during

business hours, whether or not they are occupied which

is very wasteful of energy. The ‘Smart Campus’ ini a ve

will significantly extend the sensors and controls fi ed

into rooms and will detect the presence of people within

the space, and thus the actual need for heat and light,

leading to significant energy savings. The improvements

will lead to much more intelligent monitoring and control

throughout their buildings and real‐ me monitoring of

not only temperature but security, fire alarms and CCTV.

Simon then linked back to the Asset Management issues

described previously. In iden fying the improvements

made to the Building Management System to support a

Smart Campus, and along with fi ng sensors to cri cal

M&E assets, enabled them to monitor the

performance of these cri cal assets and services in

real‐ me, and assist the Estates department in

responding to maintenance ac ons well before cri cal

failures might occur in the future.

University of St. Andrews is a ‘Smart Campus’ a er all!

We are always very lucky to have Ian Gelling present at

our events. Ian used to be Sales Director here at MASS

before moving on to being the Business Development and

Global Services consultant for ARCHIBUS EMEA. This year

he held a Technology Focus Group around Big Data, the

Internet of Things (IoT) and Integra on.

He kick‐started with an entertaining video in which

delegates had to ‘spot the technology’, of which, there

were many. He then ques oned technology trends, who

defines them and what is technology? What is the

catalyst for change? He displayed what ARCHIBUS see as

the order of priority which is ‐ “We need to feed, to be

fed from, the intelligence of our built environment”. The

next sec on was Integra on. Through Integra on

ARCHIBUS relates enterprise, architectural, and

geospa al informa on into one uniform whole. He

showed an applica on example of this with ISEP (Ins tuto

Superior de Engenharia do Porto).

‘Internet of Things’ is a somewhat new term in the FM

world. Ian showed the delegates examples of what it is by

a short video, and the applica ons in ARCHIBUS that help

manage aspects of it, for example, Energy Management.

Anything is possible with IoT, as shown in a Case Study

from Gegentech.

EDGE: Connect 2017 

Big Data and Smart Ci es were finally covered. Again,

what they are and what applica ons there are to

maintain or create. The presenta on closed with the

suppor ve message that ARCHIBUS can offer

opportuni es to ones whole business but one must

consider the future whilst looking at the outcomes too.

‘ARCHIBUS by its nature makes it easier for

all stakeholders’.

Over a buffet style lunch, delegates had the opportunity

to also network with one another, ask ques ons and hold

discussions with any presenters too. Although, everyone

was also very interac ve throughout the day, we then

rounded up lunch and con nued with the days

presenta ons…

Suitably following on from Ian's presenta on we had

Mar n Ma , MASS’s Technical Director, who provided a

quick demonstra on on how ARCHIBUS can be integrated

with SFG20 Asset based maintenance standards to

extract data and process it into WEB Central Planned

Preventa ve Maintenance (PPM) Processes via the

ARCHIBUS Connector Technology. Many of our customers

are looking at SFG20 as the leading maintenance

standard in the industry and there was some posi ve

feedback on the ability to integrate this with their

ARCHIBUS solu ons. This demonstra on was strictly live

and dangerous, but in true Mar n style, it worked out

perfectly!

There was a lot of interac on with this presenta on

especially, with Mar n leading it, and Mark Li le (Senior

Technical Engineer and Trainer) and Paul Munro (Sales

Director) standing up to support him (and Ian too). A lot

of ques ons were asked and answered via the

demonstra on, and even some mes, by the delegates

that currently use it!

The topic of discussion in this presenta on will be

published by MASS soon in its own right.

One delegate as men oned above, who was very

involved in answering ques ons was Richard Kimber,

CAFM Manager from the University of the West of

England. Coincidentally, he was up next with his User

Presenta on: “DESIGN|BUILD|MAINTAIN ‐ The power of

asset data…” The topics covered in this User Presenta on

were, Data, Informa on, Knowledge ‐ The ‘Informa on

Age’ and its newest commodity: Value of BIM for

maintenance ‐ the why’s and wherefores. Finally, how

bad is bad data? Richard showcased the perfect analogy

that describes ‘joining the dot’s’ between Data,

Informa on and Knowledge, like baking a cake. The data

is the cake ingredients; informa on being the recipe and

knowledge being the detailed instruc ons on how to

bake it. The added value of the three complimented each

other, like when supermarkets give you addi onal

informa on e.g. where you can

buy the ingredients for the

cheapest price and the

nutri onal value.

He encouraged us to stay

focused on the end goal, whether that’s in the cake

example or the real example. Richard explained the real

example in depth: data is the assets you have, for

example a Distribu on Board. The informa on is which

building on campus that board is located in together with

the room number. Knowledge is the PPM frequency it has

and finally Added Value is the cost to replace it if it fails

(RRP) and its life expectancy. He defined what an asset

was, and asked the ques on again, is that the end goal?

What do you want to do, and how do I do it now?

“Maybe some examples how data can help you, will help

steer you?” Richard showed us their fault analysis, PPM

planner, Lifecycle planner and their bad data help them

to con nually overcome problems and

achieve their end goals. 9 

EDGE: Connect 2017 

We had another quick break before our final User

Presenta on.

Last but not least, Craig Morton who is One FM’s Business

System Manager, stood up and presented on ‘The Power

of Data’. Craig is one of David Malcolm’s colleagues (who

presented earlier in the day) and they both gave very

different presenta ons. One FM is the joint FM Services

provision of Sellafield Ltd work alongside Mi e.

Sellafield have 10 sites, 2600 buildings, 100,000 PPM/On

Demand per annum, and 90, 0000 + SLA’s! So as you can

imagine this keeps everyone busy as it requires a lot of

focus.

Their ARCHIBUS usage is Helpdesk, Lease Management,

Space Management, Asset Care, Energy Management,

PPM and On Demand, Asbestos Management and KPI and

SLA’s.

“In God we trust, all others must bring data.”

He spoke about the level of work they have at Sellafield,

as subcontractors, and how they spend all their me

inpu ng data. It was explained that, as a company, they

need more people and even some mes that they have

too much work to do. Based on dates and mes inpu ed

to each separate work request, the total came to 329

hours for just one month. Due to the number of

subcontractors (of which by the way, only 2 have

ARCHIBUS logins) to complete all those required hours of

inpu ng, it takes 2.5 people a day.

It’s some mes a struggle for the Planning Team to plan

PPM and reac ve work, so how do they figure out how

long the work will take? Craig explains they have to focus

on what they already know. This can be things like

historically how long has it taken to complete this type of

work before and the procedure required.

Knowing these two factors, allows them to es mate how

long the work will take based on actual data.

Although the data is some mes overwhelming, the work

gets done!

A er a summary of the day’s presenta ons and a brief

introduc on to day two, we provided delegates with a

somewhat sophis cated wind down ac vity…

Granted, we “out did” ourselves last year with the cock‐

tail making ac vity but I believe our Wine and Cheese

tas ng this year went down brilliantly too! Delegates

were split into 2 groups and were presented with 6 differ‐

ent types of wine, 3 white and 3 red. The selec on they

had to taste were wines such as a Rioja Reserva, Pinot

Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon and Bourgogne Chardonnay.

They also had 6 different dis nct cheeses to accompany

the wines. The groups had to read through 12 different

tas ng notes for the wine (including 6 dummy

descrip ons) and to taste the wine too (obviously). A er

both tasks were completed, one more enjoyable than the

other, the task was to decipher which descrip on

belonged to which wine. This was the same with the 6

different cheeses, types included Cornish Garlic Yarg,

Black Bomber Extra Mature Cheddar and Vintage

Applewood. We had a fairly obvious winner, although

both teams were very good at comple ng it…and so

quickly too! Pride was the prize, oh and lots of wine and

cheese for consump on!

Funnily enough, the vast amount of le over cheese we

had, somehow went missing. The MASS Team went to

tuck into it on the Thursday a ernoon and it had just van‐

ished. We don’t know when, or where.

This resulted in us crea ng many MISSING posters that

were displayed around the Conference Centre building.

EDGE: Connect 2017

Someone did interact with these posters with a few

gimmicks, but unfortunately no one understands the

importance of the missing cheese and we s ll haven’t

found it! We can only have hope that the truth comes

out soon…#CheeseGate. The theme will con nue!

We started things back up again

at 9:00 on the 2nd day. A long

day of training lay ahead for the

delegates so the coffee machine

was full to the brim…but not for

long.

Alongside Ian, we are also lucky

to have Sean Benson, Training

Program Coordinator & Trainer

for ARCHIBUS, present at our events. He didn’t fail us this

me round and he actually presented twice. His first was

educa ng the delegates on Facili es Asset Management

with an introduc on to Asset Lifecycle Management. He

gave an overview of what it was and ISO55000, defined

as “asset management” as: “The coordinated ac vity of

an organisa on to realise value…” “…all asset types are

highly inter-dependent…considera on of assets in

systems, along with the cross-func onal op misa on of

their life cycles, are core principles of good asset

management.” A er displaying some common

challenges when Managing Assets, discussing and

answering some key ques ons he moved on to the

features. He explained it was key to understand what you

have, to know your total costs and performance,

maintaining what you have and evalua ng what you

need. Having all those above areas covered gives you

some benefits such as increasing the performance of

asset management teams. This is because it integrates

systems for purchase, disposal, monitoring and

maintenance. Of course, ARCHIBUS provides

applica ons and features to help you do this. Sean gave

brief overviews of these Apps which included On Demand

Work, Compliance Management and many more. The

presenta on was rounded off with a discussion of some

common challenges one could face and how to possibly

overcome them. These challenges were: the data

standards, business processes, requirements,

deployment and key performance indicators.

Sean didn’t get much rest this day and was straight up

again a er the break. This me for the V.23.2 Overview

and Roadmap. He took us through the direc on of where

ARCHIBUS may go, the applica ons and the core. We

can’t tell you everything about Sean’s presenta on

unfortunately as some of the informa on was “roadmap”

ideas and those aren’t definite direc ons yet.

The topics covered will be publicly available soon but for

the mean me, below are the links to the V.23.2 Help

systems. They will include informa on on What’s New in

each release:

Before the training ac vity started a er the lunch break,

Mark Li le took some me to explain what was going to

happen. Why we are doing the training and what we will

learn throughout. The training was tled as the ‘MASS

Technical Challenge’ which was based around ARCHIBUS

and Assets.

EDGE: Connect 2017 

The training nicely fi ed in with

Richard Kimber’s cake analogy and

also the theme of the

presenta ons across the two days

– Data: Mark explained that in the

past, managing your assets and maintaining your building

was a lot easier. The buildings were simpler, so were the

systems and the tools. In the present, there is a lot more

going on. The CAFM managers/workers are con nually

updated with more work and they are quite literally on

the edge. A few examples of this work and its demands

were displayed.

We designed the training to give delegates a be er sense

of what to do, why they have to do it and most

importantly how! The technical challenge had a setup of a

scenario building with videos of MASS staff, the task and

then the assessment of result. The group was split into

two teams. Each delegate was given their job role with its

descrip on, and a work sheet which they had to

complete at each stage. The two groups were also given

assets which fell into two categories, HVAC Systems and

Electrical Systems on one table, and on another they had

a PC with access to ARCHIBUS and a Mobile Device. Each

group had their own External Contractor too, which was a

member of Technical staff from MASS.

The first challenge was set by a video of ‘Mr

Government Man’, portrayed by Callum Doyle

one of our Technical Support Engineers,

reques ng that delegates capture their asset

data. The person with the main responsibility

in each group was the Asset Co‐Ordinator. Delegates had

to scan barcodes and assigned each individual asset and

then input the informa on into ARCHIBUS. The Asset

Co‐Ordinator had to complete a Business Case for Asset

Management alongside the ac vity.

The second challenge was set by a video of

‘The Facili es Director’, who is our Maintenance

Manager, Julian Bolt. A er they had

captured all their Asset Data, delegates were

asked to use their FM system tool to update

and maintain that informa on and to report

to the Finance Director when they were

done. The job role with most responsibility

for this was the System Administrators they

had to complete a System Management Document.

Now each team had a full Asset inventory and had put

together a Maintenance Strategy, they had been asked to

create a full asset lifecycle and disposal process. ‘The

Finance Director’ who instructed this was

Emma Rayner, our Project and

Communica ons Manager. The teams

Maintenance Manager lead this ac vity as

well as filling out a Asset System Processes

Update Document.

The final scene and ac vity was set

by. ‘The Chairman’, Luke Bolt our

Managing Director, who asked for

the groups to give him some

meaningful repor ng informa on.

This was by providing him with

some Asset based reports. Leading this for the groups

was the assigned FM Service Program Manager and the

final worksheet to complete was Repor ng Requirement

Proposal.

You can find all our videos if you scan the barcode below!

We brought EDGE: Connect to a close

a er a brief conclusion of all training

ac vi es and discussed all results on the

worksheets. The feedback of the event

was posi ve and included construc ve

ideas for future events. Let’s see what

we can do next year...stay tuned! 12

UWE is con nually developing and has commi ed to

inves ng £250m on projects as part of the UWE New

Campus Masterplan. It has been announced that A new

Engineering Building is due to be opened in 2020 (in the

region of £30‐£40million).

New and recent developments include:

New Business and Law building ‐ a £50m project

for a state‐of‐the‐art building to house the Bristol

Business School and Bristol Law School ‐ opened

January 2017.

New Students' Union building ‐ opened in

September 2015 this £10m development was

designed to improve and inspire the student

experience.

New Wallscourt Park Residences ‐ a £23m project

increasing student accommoda on on campus.

New Future Space ‐ a unique workspace for

science and technology companies, from

innova ve start‐ups to SMEs, to help them grow

and develop.

UWE, Estates and Facili es department use a host of

different contractors to manage their varying

maintenance demands, while also managing their own

one hundred strong labour forces for cleaning and

grounds work.

Across the estate they deal with about 80,000 ‘reac ve’

work requests per annum, using the ARCHIBUS On

Demand applica on. Their main contractor, Graham

Facili es Management, handle about 20,000 of these

every year, 2,500 PPM jobs a month (so a further 30,000

per annum). Therefore, out of their 80,000 reac ve jobs,

Grahams FM deals with around 50,000 a year which are

On Demand and PPM. They also interface with the

ARCHIBUS system for approvals using an ‘Real‐Time

Interface’ solu on developed for them by MASS.

Business Challenge ‐

The en re site by its sheer size and dynamic popula on

presents a formidable facili es management scenario but

overall it is new or rela vely new.

The older buildings, some da ng back to Victorian mes

that make up a substan al part of the estate, have not

had the benefits of up to date building regula ons

enforced during their original years. So their maintenance

to meet and exceed the regula ons is an ongoing

challenge.

Notable among the compliance requirements is the need

to manage the asbestos found on the estate to ensure

the health and safety of the buildings users.

When materials that contain asbestos are disturbed or

damaged, fibres are released into the air. When these

fibres are inhaled they can cause serious diseases.

These diseases do not manifest immediately; they o en

take a long to develop and show symptoms, by which

me it is too late to cure.

The death rate from asbestosis is unusually high and has

only become apparent recently. That is why it is essen al

that responsible organisa ons take ac on to protect

users of their buildings.

The overall mission of the UWE Estates and Facili es

Department team is to provide a safe, secure and

suitable environment for all its users to achieve their

highest academic and working ambi ons.

To do this they are currently transi oning from an Excel

Asbestos register to the MASS Solu on (overleaf).

They are con nuously trying to consolidate systems and

where possible, improve the way they work, eventually

aligning their Asbestos procedure to the MASS Asbestos

solu on.

This is just a part of their plan for a digital campus, where

all our building informa on is recorded in an appropriate

system.

“The Control of Asbestos Regula ons 2012 came into

force on 6 April 2012, upda ng previous asbestos

regula ons to take account of the European Commission's

view that the UK had not fully implemented the EU

Direc ve on exposure to asbestos

(Direc ve 2009/148/EC).”

ARCHIBUS Asbestos Management Case Study 

Solu on

MASS has worked with its diverse range of clients across

the UK & Scandinavia, to design a product that enables

users to correctly manage Asbestos found their estates to

fully comply with new legalisa on.

The Asbestos Management Applica on runs on the

ARCHIBUS Web Central pla orm and is designed to

allows users to create and manage all asbestos instances

within their organisa on.

UWE found the applica on easily configurable as it runs

within the current Web Central versions of ARCHIBUS.

It is a fully integrated WEB Central solu on and is

integrated with the Buildings Opera ons Module (BOMS)

to display Asbestos instances when crea ng and

managing work requests. The seamless integra on

extends to the Virtual Private ARCHIBUS (VPA) too.

The interface allows for secure controlled access to

associated Asbestos management processes on a user by

user basis and it is presented as a simplified mul ‐tab

screen that is simple to use requiring the minimum

number of clicks to complete a task, and can be accessed

via Process Navigator or Home Page Navigator.

It works efficiently with standard ARCHIBUS Space and

Drawing func ons to provide graphical representa on.

Suppor ng input, management and repor ng in an

intui ve way makes keeping up to date and repor ng a

straight forward task.

Full support is given for surveying (including the Asbestos

Cloning func on) and the Asbestos Manage Risk

Scoreboard makes light work of priori sing and assigning

related tasks.

Essen al to compliance is repor ng and the applica on

produces a set of standard reports as well as simplifying

the task of genera ng user defined reports that be er

reflect differences between organisa ons.

A er many years of ge ng good use from the system at

UWE, David Spiller and his team decided to breathe new

life into the facili es database that had been created, to

improve the value add from the so ware.

While they have been ensuring compliance of their older

proper es they have also been at the vanguard with their

applica on of BIM and the smooth transi on of the

new‐build data into ARCHIBUS system so ensuring the

management of the ‘Opera on’ phase of their building

lifecycles.

This successful applica on is typical of the new products/

applica ons coming out of the development team at

Mass who are con nually looking at ways to drive the

ARCHIBUS solu on to increase value for their users.

A Space Planning Issue ‐ From the Blog! 

Space planning for the modern organisa on is very o en driven by straigh orward, easily measured economic

pressures at the expense of crea ng an environment to support innova ve ideas that could poten ally provide

greater returns and personal wellbeing.

I read the ar cle below many moons ago and wanted to share it and maybe elicit a response.

‘SOLITUDE is out of fashion. Our companies, our schools and our culture are in thrall to an idea I call the New

Groupthink, which holds that crea vity and achievement come from an oddly gregarious place. Most of us now work

in teams, in offices without walls, for managers who prize people skills above all. Lone geniuses are out. Collabora on

is in.

But there’s a problem with this view. Research strongly suggests that people are

more crea ve when they enjoy privacy and freedom from interrup on. And the

most spectacularly crea ve people in many fields are o en introverted, according

to studies by the psychologists Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi and Gregory Feist. They’re

extroverted enough to exchange and advance ideas, but see themselves as

independent and individualis c. They’re not joiners by nature.

One explana on for these findings is that introverts are comfortable working alone

— and solitude is a catalyst to innova on. As the influen al psychologist Hans

Eysenck observed, introversion fosters crea vity by “concentra ng the mind on the

tasks in hand, and preven ng the dissipa on of energy on social and sexual ma ers

unrelated to work.” In other words, a person si ng quietly under a tree in the

backyard, while everyone else is clinking glasses on the pa o, is more likely to

have an apple land on his head. (Newton was one of the world’s great introverts:

William Wordsworth described him as “A mind for ever/ Voyaging through strange

seas of Thought, alone.”)

Solitude has long been associated with crea vity and transcendence. “Without great solitude, no serious work is

possible,” Picasso said. A central narra ve of many religions is the seeker — Moses, Jesus, Buddha — who goes off

by himself and brings profound insights back to the community.

Culturally, we’re o en so dazzled by charisma that we overlook the quiet part of the crea ve process. Consider

Apple. In the wake of Steve Jobs’s death, we’ve seen a profusion of myths about the company’s success. Most focus

on Mr. Jobs’s supernatural magne sm and tend to ignore the other crucial figure in Apple’s crea on: a kindly,

introverted engineering wizard, Steve Wozniak, who toiled alone on a beloved inven on, the personal

computer.

16 

A Space Planning Issue ‐ From the Blog! 

Rewind to March 1975: Mr. Wozniak believes the world would be a be er place if everyone had a user‐friendly

computer. This seems a distant dream — most computers are s ll the size of minivans, and many mes as pricey. But

Mr. Wozniak meets a simpa co band of engineers that call themselves the Homebrew Computer Club. The

Homebrewers are excited about a primi ve new machine called the Altair 8800. Mr. Wozniak is inspired, and

immediately begins work on his own magical version of a computer. Three months later, he unveils his amazing

crea on for his friend, Steve Jobs. Mr. Wozniak wants to give his inven on away free, but Mr. Jobs persuades him to

co‐found Apple Computers.

The story of Apple’s origin speaks to the power of collabora on. Mr. Wozniak wouldn’t have been catalyzed by the

Altair but for the kindred spirits of Homebrew. And he’d never have started Apple without Mr. Jobs.

But it’s also a story of solo spirit. If you look at how Mr. Wozniak got the work done — the sheer hard work of

crea ng something from nothing — he did it alone. Late at night, all by himself.

Inten onally so. In his memoir, Mr. Wozniak offers this guidance to aspiring inventors:

“Most inventors and engineers I’ve met are like me ... they live in their heads. They’re almost like ar sts. In fact, the

very best of them are ar sts. And ar sts work best alone .... I’m going to give you some advice that might be hard to

take. That advice is: Work alone... Not on a commi ee. Not on a team.”

And yet. The New Groupthink has overtaken our workplaces, our schools and our religious ins tu ons. Anyone who

has ever needed noise‐cancelling headphones in her own office or marked an online calendar with a fake mee ng in

order to escape yet another real one knows what I’m talking about. Virtually all American workers now spend me

on teams and some 70 percent inhabit open‐plan offices, in which no one has “a room of one’s own.” During the last

decades, the average amount of space allo ed to each employee shrank 300 square feet, from 500 square feet in

the 1970s to 200 square feet in 2010.

Our schools have also been transformed by the New Groupthink. Today, elementary school classrooms are

commonly arranged in pods of desks, the be er to foster group learning. Even subjects like maths and crea ve

wri ng are o en taught as commi ee projects. In one fourth‐grade classroom I visited in New York City, students

engaged in group work were forbidden to ask a ques on unless every member of the group had the very same

ques on.

The NewGroup think also shapes some of our most influen al religious ins tu ons. Many mega‐churches feature

extra curricular groups organized around every conceivable ac vity, from paren ng to skateboarding to real estate,

and expect worshipers to join in. They also emphasize a theatrical style of worship — loving Jesus out loud, for all the

congrega on to see.

17 

A Space Planning Issue ‐ From the Blog! 

“O en the role of a pastor seems closer to that of church cruise director than to the tradi onal roles of spiritual

friend and counselor,” said Adam McHugh, an evangelical pastor and author of “Introverts in the Church.”

SOME teamwork is fine and offers a fun, s mula ng, useful way to exchange ideas, manage informa on and build

trust.

But it’s one thing to associate with a group in which each member works autonomously on his piece of the puzzle; it’s

another to be corralled into endless mee ngs or conference calls conducted in offices that afford no respite from the

noise and gaze of co‐workers. Studies show that open‐plan offices make workers hos le, insecure and distracted.

They’re also more likely to suffer from high blood pressure, stress, flu and exhaus on. And people whose work is in‐

terrupted make 50 percent more mistakes and take twice as long to finish it.

Many introverts seem to know this ins nc vely, and resist being herded together. Backbone Entertainment, a video

game development company in Emeryville, Calif., ini ally used an open‐plan office, but found that its game

developers, many of whom were introverts, were unhappy. “It was one big warehouse space, with just tables, no

walls, and everyone could see each other,” recalled Mike Mika, the former crea ve director. “We switched over to

cubicles and were worried about it — you’d think in a crea ve environment that people would hate that. But it turns

out they prefer having nooks and crannies they can hide away in and just be away from everybody.”

Privacy also makes us produc ve. In a fascina ng study known as the Coding War Games, consultants Tom DeMarco

and Timothy Lister compared the work of more than 600 computer programmers at 92 companies. They found that

people from the same companies performed at roughly the same level — but that there was an enormous

performance gap between organiza ons. What dis nguished programmers at the top‐performing companies wasn’t

greater experience or be er pay. It was how much privacy, personal workspace and freedom from interrup on they

enjoyed. Sixty‐two percent of the best performers said their workspace was sufficiently private compared with only

19 percent of the worst performers. Seventy‐six percent of the worst programmers but only 38 percent of the best

said that they were o en interrupted needlessly.

Solitude can even help us learn. According to research on expert

performance by the psychologist Anders Ericsson, the best way to

master a field is to work on the task that’s most demanding for you

personally. And o en the best way to do this is alone. Only then, Mr.

Ericsson told me, can you “go directly to the part that’s challenging to

you. If you want to improve, you have to be the one who generates

the move. Imagine a group class — you’re the one genera ng the

move only a small percentage of the me.”

Conversely, brainstorming sessions are one of the worst

possible ways to s mulate crea vity.

The brainchild of a charisma c adver sing execu ve named

Alex Osborn who believed that groups produced be er ideas

than individuals, workplace brainstorming sessions came

into vogue in the 1950s. “The quan ta ve results of group

brainstorming are beyond ques on,” Mr. Osborn wrote.

“One group produced 45 sugges ons for a home‐appliance

promo on, 56 ideas for a money‐raising campaign, 124 ideas

on how to sell more blankets.”

But decades of research show that individuals almost always

perform be er than groups in both quality and quan ty, and

group performance gets worse as group size increases.

The “evidence from science suggests that business people must be insane to use brainstorming groups,” wrote the

organiza onal psychologist Adrian Furnham. “If you have talented and mo vated people, they should be encouraged

to work alone when crea vity or efficiency is the highest priority.”

The reasons brainstorming fails are instruc ve for other forms of group work, too. People in groups tend to sit back

and let others do the work; they ins nc vely mimic others’ opinions and lose sight of their own; and, o en succumb

to peer pressure. The Emory University neuroscien st Gregory Berns found that when we take a different stance

from the groups, we ac vate the amygdala, a small organ in the brain associated with the fear of rejec on. Professor

Berns calls this “the pain of independence.”

The one important excep on to this dismal record is electronic brainstorming, where large groups outperform

individuals; and the larger the group the be er. The protec on of the screen mi gates many problems of group

work. This is why the Internet has yielded such wondrous collec ve crea ons. Marcel Proust called reading a

“miracle of communica on in the midst of solitude,” and that’s what the Internet is, too. It’s a place where we can

be alone together — and this is precisely what gives it power.

My point is not that man is an island. Life is meaningless without love, trust and friendship.

And I’m not sugges ng that we abolish teamwork. Indeed, recent studies suggest that influen al academic work is

increasingly conducted by teams rather than by individuals.

(Although teams whose members collaborate remotely, from separate universi es, appear to be the most influen al

of all.) The problems we face in science, economics and many other fields are more complex than ever before, and

we’ll need to stand on one another’s shoulders if we can possibly hope to solve them.

But even if the problems are different, human nature remains the same. And most humans have two contradictory

impulses: we love and need one another, yet we crave privacy and autonomy.

To harness the energy that fuels both these drives, we need to move beyond the New Groupthink and embrace a

more nuanced approach to crea vity and learning. Our offices should encourage casual, cafe‐style interac ons, but

allow people to disappear into personalized, private spaces when they want to be alone. Our schools should teach

children to work with others, but also to work on their own for sustained periods of me. And we must recognize

that introverts like Steve Wozniak need extra quiet and privacy to do their best work.

Before Mr. Wozniak started Apple, he designed calculators at Hewle ‐Packard, a job he loved partly because HP

made it easy to chat with his colleagues. Every day at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., management wheeled in doughnuts and

coffee, and people could socialize and swap ideas. What dis nguished these interac ons was how low‐key they were.

For Mr. Wozniak, collabora on meant the ability to share a doughnut and a brainwave with his laid‐back, poorly

dressed colleagues — who minded not a whit when he disappeared into his cubicle to get the real work done.’

This ar cle first appeared in the New York Times tled: ‘The Rise of the New Groupthink’ by SUSAN CAINJAN, 13th

Make your own ‘ChristMASS’ 

“The smell of mulled wine alone is enough to make the home feel Christmassy...”

Method

1. Carefully peel the zest very thinly from the orange and lemons using a vegetable peeler. Squeeze out the juice and

reserve. 2. S ck the cloves into the satsumas.

3. Pour the wine, 1.2 litres/2 pints of cold water, and the citrus peel and juices into a large, heavy‐based saucepan. Add

the clove‐studded satsumas and cinnamon s cks. Bring the mixture just to the boil, then reduce the heat un l the mixture

is simmering, cover the pan with the lid, and con nue to simmer for about 1 hour. S r in the sugar gradually during

cooking, un l the mulled wine is sweetened to your liking (you may not need all of the sugar).

4. Strain the mulled wine and serve hot in cups.

Ingredients —

6 sheets filo pastry,

30 x 50 cm (12 x 20

in) each, about 180 g

(6¼ oz) in total

45 g (1½ oz)

unsalted bu er,

melted

1 tbsp icing sugar,

si ed

150 g (5½ oz) mixed

dried fruit, such as

sultanas, raisins, cur‐

rants and diced peel

4 tbsp brandy

1 cooking apple,

about 250 g (8½ oz)

30 g (1 z) preserved

stem ginger, finely

chopped

25 g (scant 1oz)

chopped walnuts

finely grated zest of

1 small lemon

Recipe by Norma MacMillan

Recipe by Mary Berry

1. To make the filling, place the dried fruit in a bowl with the brandy and s r. Cover and leave to soak

for 1 hour or un l the brandy has been absorbed.

2. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F, gas mark 6). Peel, core and coarsely grate the apple. Add to the

soaked dried fruit together with the ginger, walnuts and lemon zest. Mix well together.

3. Lay the sheets of filo out, stacking them on top of each other. Cut the stack into six 15 cm (6 in)

squares, trimming off the excess pastry. You will have 36 squares. Brush each square very lightly

with melted bu er and layer them, with the corners offset, to make 12 stacks of 3 squares

each.

4. Place about 1 tbsp of the fruit mixture on each stack, then gather up the edges and pinch

together at the top to enclose the filling.

5. Place the pastries on a non‐s ck baking sheet and brush lightly with the remaining bu er. Bake for 12

–15 minutes or un l golden brown. Serve warm, dusted with icing sugar.

Favourite film and why? ‐ It is going to have to be something very typical like Love Actually. I watch it at least once every Christmas day, the scene when he is outside her house with the cards always gets me!

Favourite music album and why? ‐ This is quite a difficult one… I listen to anything from Deep House to Seven es Disco and everything in‐between! I am not sure if I have a favourite album but I absolutely adore Robbie Williams. Can I leave it at that?

Proudest life achievement? ‐ Oh no, I am not sure if I have achieved anything! I would say probably passing my driving test. I remember having my first lesson and coming home feeling so defeated thinking I would never be able to drive. In the end it only took me five months from my first lesson to passing which I am quite proud of.

Favourite holiday des na on and why? ‐

What are your favourite hobbies? ‐ I used to be a keen figure skater when I was younger and I was quite good at it but to progress further I was told I had to commit to training before and/or a er school. That ship sailed and nowadays I prefer going to the gym and running.

Favourite childhood TV show and why? ‐ Easy, Tots TV! When I was li le my mum was very keen for me to learn French which backfired completely because I am categorically useless at languages. Nonetheless, I adored that programme and watched it for hours on end. Proper 90’s kid!

If you could tell your younger self 1 piece of advice what would it be? ‐ I would like to think I s ll am my younger self (just about!) However, here I will have to cite Theodore Roosevelt with the quote “Comparison is the thief of joy”. Never compare yourself to others, no one is taking the same journey as you.

Previous job tle and role? ‐ Interna onal Opera ons Coordinator at a video supplier to the automo ve industry.

Favourite memory from working at MASS? ‐ Considering I have not been here too long my favourite memory would have to be the video crea on for EDGE: Connect! There were so many funny moments and we all ended up ge ng the giggles. Or when we celebrated the MASS 25 Year Event and the Mayor of Wokingham forgot his phone then ended up messaging Eve on Facebook!

Your most embarrassing work moment? ‐ I would like to think I haven’t embarrassed myself too much at work yet, although when we heading to the races in celebra on of the MASS six month company review I almost accidently followed Andrew Taylor into the men’s toilets at the pub!! Whoops!!

This is a difficult one, it would have to be between Australia and Thailand. I would have to choose Thailand on the basis that I love exploring different cultures and mee ng local people and Thailand was certainly different, ‘same same’ but different! I found the people so friendly and the scenery is just beau ful, the sea is either turquoise or completely clear.

My favourite picture of Robbie!
