Kinetic and AssetWorks partner to deliver integrated management for accommodation and facilities in higher education 

Kinetic and AssetWorks are delighted to announce a new strategic partnership, under which the two companies will collaborate to improve accommodation, event, estates and facilities management for higher education bodies on both sides of the Atlantic. 

Kinetic has over 20 years’ experience partnering with world-leading universities and colleges to provide event management and student accommodation software. Supplying this mission-critical functionality to over 350 customers worldwide, Kinetic helps university accommodation and conferencing teams deliver world-leading student and customer experiences.  

Like Kinetic, AssetWorks sits under the Volaris Group umbrella, and is an integrated solutions provider focused on estates and facilities management for higher education, with particular focus on offering IWMS (Integrated Workplace Management Solutions). It provides a single unified platform that encompasses space management, asset life cycles, preventative maintenance, capital planning, construction project management, and much more. AssetWorks have developed its solutions over more than 30 years, and continuously innovates to serve the changing needs of higher education bodies.   

Under the new partnership, Kinetic and AssetWorks will explore synergies in how accommodation, estate and facilities management can be served. In particular, the two companies will focus on consistency of information and the elimination of data duplication, so that holistic decisions can be made on reliable data. Furthermore, the partnership intends to bring together work management functions, so that student accommodation organisations can get easier and more direct access to specialised trades personnel when maintenance and repairs are needed.  

Luke Warren, CEO, Kinetic Software: “Just as AssetWorks continues to innovate, Kinetic has been advancing our current suite of products, and developing Pulse, our next-generation cloud solution. Together, we have a unique opportunity to serve common university customers, create a complete end-to-end data exchange, and improve operational efficiency for higher education customers in the UK and North America alike.”  

Randy Walsh, CSO, AssetWorks: “AssetWorks Facilities has invested heavily in our family of Standard Data Connectors, enabling orchestration and management of data flows with external applications. By working with Kinetic, we’re ideally placed to support digital transformation for our higher education customers, helping their accommodation, estates and facilities become more connected, better integrated, and easier to manage. Our customers will also be able to address student needs in more timely and accurate ways. AssetWorks is very excited to be working with Kinetic in both the UK and North America to improve the complete campus experience.”
