A integrated workplace management system ( IWMS ) is a software platform that helps organizations optimize the use of resources at work, including the management of the company's real estate portfolio, infrastructure and facility assets.
IWMS technology is an advanced technology platform designed to help leading organizations manage RE/FM and their asset portfolios more effectively. IWMS solutions are generally packaged as fully integrated suites or as individual modules that can be upgraded over time.

Area fungsional inti IWMS
IWMS integrates five core functional areas within an organizationally and operationally operational organization and exhibits minimal interdisciplinary synergies, prior to the emergence of the IWMS:
Real estate management
This area involves acquisition-related activities (including purchases and leases), financial management and disposition of real property assets. Common IWMS features that support real estate management include strategic planning, transaction management, demand for proposals (RFP) analysis, lease analysis, portfolio management po, tax management, lease management, and lease accounting.
Capital project management
This area involves activities related to the design and development of new facilities and the renovation or upgrading of existing facilities, including reconfiguration and expansion. Common IWMS features that support capital project management include capital planning, design, funding, supply, procurement, cost and resource management, project documentation and image management, scheduling, and critical path analysis.
Facility management
This area includes activities related to the operation and utilization of the optimal facilities. Common IWMS features that support facility management include strategic facility planning (including modeling and scenario analysis), CAD and BIM integration, space management, place and employee service management, resource scheduling, and transfer management.
Maintenance management
This area includes activities related to corrective maintenance and prevention and operation of facilities and assets. Common IWMS features that support maintenance management include asset management, job demand, preventive maintenance, work order administration, warranty tracking, inventory management, vendor management, and facility condition assessments.
Sustainability and energy management
This area includes activities related to the measurement and reduction of resource consumption (including energy and water) and waste production (including greenhouse gas emissions) within the facility. Common IWMS features that support sustainability and energy management including integration with building management systems (BMS), sustainability performance metrics, energy benchmarking, carbon emissions tracking, and energy efficiency project analysis.

Implementation Planning
IWMS components can be implemented in any order - or all together as a comprehensive implementation - according to the needs of the organization. As a best practice implementation, a gradual approach to implementing the IWMS component in order is recommended - although a multifunctional approach can still be followed. Each IWMS functional area requires the same steps to implement, although extra maintenance, coordination and project management will be needed to ensure smooth functioning for more complex implementations.
The adoption of as-delivered business processes included in the IWMS software over an organization's existing business processes is a "core prerequisite of success and best practice" in the selection and implementation of IWMS software. As a result, the organization must limit its configuration to all but the most interesting cases.
Analyst coverage
Since 2004, IWMS market has been reported by independent analyst firm Gartner Inc., IWMSconnect and IWMSNews.
Gartner Magic Quadrant for integrated workplace management system
The annual Gartner Magic Quadrant (MQ) is installed in the IWMS marketplace that evaluates vendors based on two criteria: 'completeness of vision' and 'ability to implement'.
The original author, Michael Bell, first described the IWMS software as "an integrated enterprise solution that reaches the life cycle of facility asset management, from acquisition and operation to disposition." In this first market definition, Gartner identifies the essential requirements of IWMS, including common databases, advanced web service technologies, and system architectures that allow user-defined workflow processes and customized portal interfaces.
Gartner released an updated IWMS Magic Quadrant report, as follows:
The latest Gartner analysis was released June 26, 2014. The current Gartner analyst responsible for the publication of MQ IWMS is Rob Schafer, Research Director.
