GRITIT keeps your costs controlled
In many companies it is common that facility managers are being pressured to do a lot more with less resources. For success, they have to accurately deal with budget constraints and strictly control expenses. How?
- Considering all types of costs when preparing budget estimates: fixed, variable, direct and indirect;
- Tracking inventory;
- Selecting the best teams to carry out the projects;
- Negotiating prices with suppliers;
- Keeping a regular track of maintenance costs and financial information;
- Considering some technological investments as value for money.
The choice is to do this yourself in-house, or to hive off specific areas of work to a specialist outsourced provider such as GRITIT, and let us do the legwork for you. GRITIT eliminates budget uncertainty and shortfalls by using our fixed cost services.
GRITIT integrates into your team and handles the man management
In order to make operations run smoothly, it is crucial to implement workplace practices that foster a constant flow of communication, organization, knowledge sharing, productivity and innovation.
And, by using GRITIT for your gritting and grounds maintenance requirements, you know that you'll be using the same reliable teams for both. We're your team.
GRITIT reports and solves failures
Assets maintenance is a complex process that asks for a rigorous information flow and a quick call to action. On top of that there are KPIs that simply must be achieved.
Even so, many facility managers don’t have access to a unique platform with centralized information, where they can check the status of the operations, including failures reports.
The GRITIT technology stack even includes such things as our GRITIT IoT (Internet of Things) sensors, which enable automation of even more activities including failure reporting.
GRITIT gives you back your time
