ReADY & AiM: Smarter Space Management Software for Higher Education

Universities today are balancing shifting enrollment patterns, growing sustainability commitments, rising energy costs, evolving program needs, and increasing tech requirements. With so many competing priorities, facilities leaders need clearer visibility into how their spaces are used and where improvements can be made. And managing campus space has never been more complex, or more critical. 

That's where ReADY Space and AiM Space Management from AssetWorks Facilities come in. Together, these tools help higher education institutions understand their space, make informed decisions, and confidently plan for the future. 

What Is ReADY Space Software? 

ReADY Space connects the people who know your campus best with the data that drives your operations.  

It offers an intuitive, cloud-based platform that brings together advanced visualization tools like the Autodesk Forge Viewer, mobile-friendly space surveys, and integrated Google Maps to answer practical, everyday questions with confidence: 

• Where is there vacant space on campus? 

• How large is that building, or that department’s footprint? 

• When was the last survey of this area completed?
