When a pipe bursts in a school building or an HVAC unit fails mid-semester, every second counts. Facilities teams are expected to respond immediately—yet many still waste time digging through binders, plan rooms, or calling the office for documents.
Even with facility management softwares for schools in place, access to critical building data remains one of the biggest blind spots in K-12 maintenance. That’s where ARC Facilities steps in—enhancing your existing tools by making building information instantly accessible from the field.
Why Access Matters in School Facility Management
Software helps organize your to-do list, track assets, and manage work orders. But what happens when a technician needs the exact location of a gas shut-off—right now? Or when a vendor asks for an as-built before servicing a rooftop chiller?
Without mobile access to building data, even the most advanced school maintenance software can’t prevent delays or mistakes. ARC Facilities adds that mobile edge—so your team can make smarter decisions in real time.
Boosting Productivity with Field-Ready Tools
The reality is: most facility teams are under-resourced. Staffing shortages, older buildings, and increased safety concerns mean schools can’t afford wasted time.
ARC empowers your current staff—without hiring more—by turning static documentation into dynamic, searchable data. Integrated with your facility maintenance software for schools, this means:
-
Reduced response times
-
Fewer repeated visits
-
Faster training for new hires
-
Clearer communication with contractors
In short, teams can get more done—more safely and with fewer headaches.
From Emergency Response to Everyday Repairs
K-12 campuses face all kinds of challenges—natural disasters, equipment failures, even lockdown situations. In these moments, facilities teams become the front line of safety.
ARC complements your K12 facility management software by giving teams:
-
Mobile access to evacuation maps and emergency routes
-
Real-time utility shut-off locations
-
Shareable building plans for first responders
-
Updated safety documentation
No more running back to the office. No more guessing.
Keep Institutional Knowledge Where It Belongs
How many schools rely on a senior staff member who "just knows" where everything is? What happens when that person retires?
With ARC Facilities, decades of tribal knowledge can be digitized, stored, and shared across your organization. Whether you’re onboarding new team members or working with outside vendors, everything is available—anytime, anywhere.
That’s how you transform school facility management software into a true long-term investment.
Support Smarter Renovations and Capital Projects
Schools are always growing—new wings, gym upgrades, security system installations. These projects can be delayed (or derailed) by something as simple as a missing floor plan or incomplete close-out package.
ARC makes this problem disappear by syncing your building’s documentation into one mobile-accessible hub. Whether accessed by your facilities team or your architects, everything is centralized—so construction stays on track and under budget.
ARC Enhances, Not Replaces, Your Software
Let’s be clear—ARC isn’t another platform to learn or a system that replaces your existing software. It’s a smart layer on top of what you already use.
If your district already runs a school maintenance software system, ARC makes it mobile, flexible, and field-ready—empowering your team without disrupting your workflows.
