Linear Assets
You can use a Linear Assets Shell to keep track of linear assets such as roads, rails, pipelines,
and power lines. Linear Assets are pre-designed Shell types that you can use to create Shells.
Linear Assets are at the same level as Buildings, in the hierarchy, so when you create a Linear
Assets Shell, Unifier places the Shell under the the Sites type Shells, similar to Buildings. The
Shell Manager (on page 18) section of this guide provides more details about Linear Assets
manager.

Land
You can use a Land Shell to keep track of land properties (owned or leased). In addition, you
can enable any kind of BP, and managers, under Land type Shell. Land is pre-designed Shell
type that you can use to create Shells. Land is at the same level as Buildings, in the hierarchy,
so when you create a Land Shell, Unifier places the Shell under the the Sites type Shells, similar
to Buildings. The Shell Manager (on page 18) section of this guide provides more details about
Land manager.

Facilities: Asset Management


Asset management enables you to manage:
 Asset Creation
 Asset Templates
 Assets by Type
 Asset Warranty
 Asset Meters

Note: The list of Asset Management Business Processes (BPs) is


provided below.

Asset Creation
The Asset Creator process simplifies and automates the creation of asset records and all related
objects. During asset creation process, the user will populate all asset data that are specific to
this asset instance, for example, Serial Number, Location, Install date, In-Service Date,
Purchase Price, and so forth. All other asset data that are common (with similar type of asset)
can be automatically populated by selecting an Asset Template. (see the next topic, below).
Once the asset creation is submitted, the actual Asset record is auto-created along with the
corresponding preventive maintenance book record (PM BOOK) for the asset (assuming
preventive maintenance is required, as well as the Meter Readings record for this asset).

Note: Oracle does not recommend creating new Assets directly from the
Assets log menu, as many of the necessary related records will have to
be manually created.

Asset Templates
Asset Templates are used to store the common asset data (manufacturer, model number, and
so forth) for assets of the same type. It is meant to simplify and ensure consistency among asset
of similar types. As outlined in the topic above, Asset Templates are used by the Asset Creator
process.

68
Unifier Facilities Management

Assets by Type
You can organize assets by type, manufacturer, or other attributes in the Assets Log. By default,
assets are grouped in the left Navigator of the log by Type and then by Manufacturer.

Note: The set up is a configurable Advanced Log parameter and can be


changed by the administrator in uDesigner.

Asset Warranty
Each asset has data fields to capture warranty information such as:
 Warranty name
 URL Link to the manufacturer web site
 Warranty Details text field
 Warranty number
 Warranty Start Date and End date
Warranty Expire Lead Time is an additional field that enables you to specify the number of days
before the warranty expires. The system, then, automatically initiates and sends out an asset
facility inspection record. This ensures that an asset inspection is completed before the warranty
coverage expires.

Asset Meters
Asset meters are a repositories that capture readings of meters belonging to assets. Asset
meters are used to generate work orders when trigger dates or readings are reached (one or
multiple Meter Reading records per Asset). Meter reading values can be used as a trigger
creation of Work Order in case of meter-based preventive maintenance.
Some assets may have different types of meters and gauges such as:
 Pressure gauge
 Hours of operations meter
 Temperature gauge
If these meters and gauges are used to trigger preventive work orders, then each asset may
have one or more Asset Meter records. The assets with multiple meters and gauge types will
have multiple meters, and each meter record is used to capture meter readings for this type of
meter. Based on meter reading thresholds (set up on the Preventive Maintenance Book for the
asset), the system will trigger work orders automatically and based on the latest meter reading.

Facilities: Maintenance Management


Maintenance management is essential to the smooth operation of any facility, which includes
keeping interruptions, system failures, and safety incidents to a minimum.
The many preventive maintenance features in Facilities Management includes best-in-class
automated processes for things such as service requests (with a portal interface), preventive
and corrective work orders, preventive maintenance books, job plans, meter readings, invoices
and payments, material and parts inventory, material orders and receipts, material moves,
material adjustments, and more.
The constantly changing state of information is managed through Primavera Unifier workflow
engine, which tracks all task assignments. Users can manage these elements through the
product interface or via automated e-mails.
Making things even easier, all maintenance work–related costs are rolled-up to a central cost
sheet normalized by a robust cost code structure. Here, users can drill down through facility
management costs by each transaction for the entire facility or across the portfolio of facilities.
All cost structures are easily configurable by an administrator.
Maintenance management enables you to manage:
 Portal Service Requests
 Work Order Requests
 Corrective Work Order
 Preventive Work Order
 Job Plans
 Preventive Maintenance (PM) Books
 Material Stock-Keeping Unit (SKU)
 Material Inventory
 Material Requests
 Materials Received

Note: Information about the Maintenance Management Business


Processes (BPs) is provided below.

78
Unifier Facilities Management

Portal Service Requests


The Portal Service Request process is an easy-to-use process for submitting facility service
requests for issues, problems, requests for repair, and so forth. The Portal Service Request
allows you to specify the nature of the issue, priority, criticality, location (site or building) as well
As the asset affected if applicable.
The Portal Service Request process is accessible to users from a different URL address then
the typical full access URL used to login to Unifier. Access to this portal Service Request
process interface is available to all licensed Unifier FAM users who are members of the “Portal
Users” company level User Group.

Work Order Requests


Once a Service Request is submitted from the portal interface (see above), a Work Order
Request is automatically generated in the Company Workspace > Facilities Help Desk node.
Members of the Help Desk group can review the Work Order Requests generated from the
Service Requests and approve or reject. Once approved, a Corrective Work Order gets
auto-generated in the appropriate location, based on the service request data.

Corrective Work Order


Corrective Work Orders are typically auto-generated from the approved Work Order Requests,
as explained in the above topic. A corrective work order is created in the appropriate shell
location (Site-level or Building-level) and contains all the relevant information regarding the
issue, the asset, the location and a full description of the problem copied from the service
request.

Preventive Work Order


Preventive Work Order get generated automatically from the Preventive Maintenance Book
record for each asset. Preventive Work Orders can be generated based on one of the following
trigger events:
 Scheduled Event (time-based)
 Gauge-triggered
 Meter-triggered
The settings for each trigger type are set up on the Preventive Maintenance Book (PM Book)
record for each asset. See the PM Books section for details about the logic behind creating the
PWO.

Job Plans
Job Plans are considered templates for the list of Labor and Tasks, materials and Tools required
to complete a specific type of maintenance work. The following is a list of some of the
information that is stored in each Job Plan:

79
Unifier Facilities and Asset Management User Guide

 Types of labor
 Estimated time to complete each task
 Sequence of tasks
 List of materials
 Estimated quantities
When setting up the PM Book activities (time-based, meter-based or Gauge-based), a Job Plan
can be selected and associated with each PWO activity.
When PWO are auto-generated, the information is carried over from each job plan, and included
in the PWO work order, to guide the technician performing the work. The following is a list of
some of the information:
 List of required labor and tasks
 Estimated time to complete each task
 List of material and estimated quantity

Preventive Maintenance (PM) Books


PM Books hold details on specific maintenance activities such as when and how preventive work
orders get triggered.
Preventive Work Orders are generated automatically from the PM Books. Triggering the PWOs
can be controlled by one of the following types of trigger events:
 Scheduled Events (time-based)
 Gauge-triggered
 Meter-triggered
Settings for each trigger type are set up on the PM Book record for each asset. In addition, PWO
creation from Scheduled Events can also be further controlled by selecting “Seasonal Dates”
exceptions, for example, Create a PWO every month, except for the months of June, July, and
August.

Material Stock-Keeping Unit (SKU)


The Material SKU Master process acts as the library of all stocked and non-stocked material
used for material inventory and maintenance management. The Material SKU Master provides
the details for each type of material/part, manufacturer name, model number, specifications, and
images as well as a list of Vendors who can be used to purchase such material from.

Material Inventory
Material Inventory Management provides the ability to maintain a list of materials at a particular
location/warehouse. It dynamically updates the quantity in inventory and average unit cost for
each material SKU in inventory. Material Inventory gets updated dynamically when new material
is purchased and received, material is consumed/issued for work orders and when manual
inventory adjustments are made.

80
Unifier Facilities Management

Material Requests
Material Requests is a process typically used by technicians during work order execution when
they need to request additional material from a specific warehouse. When requested and
submitted by the technician, a material request is assigned to the Warehouse Managers user
group with a list of requested material SKUs and quantities. When fulfilled by the warehouse
personnel, the technician is notified and the work order gets updated with the issued material
quantity.

Materials Received
Material Received process is used to confirm the delivery and receipt of materials that have
been ordered from a vendor by a Purchase Order (PO). The material Received record is
matched with the corresponding PO and requested SKU and quantities are compared to the
SKUs and quantities received,
Once the material received is approved, the Material Inventory quantities and average unit price
get updated dynamically.

Facilities: Space Management


Whether moving a single person or re-stacking entire buildings, Primavera Unifier space- and
move-management solutions facilitate not only strategic planning and tactical re-assignment of
space but also the move process itself (including all associated tasks, dates, and assignments).
The Space Manager feature provides a flexible and configurable solution to create, classify, and
organize building floors and spaces by types such as usable spaces, common spaces, vertical
penetrations, gross exterior measured areas, and so on
Each space type definition has a configurable set of attributes for capturing critical data such as
occupant’s name and department, measured and/or extracted space area, space type and
usage, and more.Users can also employ the Space Manager feature to track space standard
compliances and room availability, and to compute occupancy rates.
In addition,the configurable Stacking Plans capability provides a visual representation of an
entire facility or building, broken down by floor or level, to show how spa a single department on
a given floor, and more. The Space Manager feature also supports the Building Owners and
Managers Association standards for space classification
Space management enables you to manage:
 Space Planning Classifications
 Stacking Plans
 Space Requests & Assignments
 Move Management
 Room Reservations
 Space Management Business Processes

103
Unifier Facilities and Asset Management User Guide

Note: Information about the Space Management Business Processes


(BPs) is provided below.

Space Planning Classifications


The Space Planning contains the following predefined Space types:
 Usable Spaces
This space type is used to measure the actual occupiable area of a floor or an office suite
and is of prime interest to a tenant in evaluating the space offered by a landlord and in
allocating the space required to house personnel and furniture.
 Leasable Spaces
This type is used to measures the tenant’s pro-rata portion of the entire office floor, excluding
elements of the building that penetrate through the floor to areas below. This space type is
associated with the Lease business process.
 Common Areas
This space type is used to measure the spaces that are shared by all tenants. Examples of
Common Area include the main building lobby, secondary lobbies and egress corridors,
building mechanical and electrical rooms, fire control center and similar areas.
 Major Vertical Penetrations
 Gross Measured Areas
 Gross Building Areas

Stacking Plans
A stacking plan is a two-dimensional chart created to display the arrangement and use of
spaces on floors in a high-rise office building or condominiums. They are usually shaded or
color-coded based on things like occupancy status (vacant/occupied), departments/companies
occupying the floor, etc.. As a default, the solution comes with three preconfigured stacking
plans:
 Vacancy Stack Plan
 Occupancy by Dept.
 Leasable Spaces by Type

Space Requests & Assignments


Users can use the Space Request process for the portal interface to request a space
assignment.
Space Requests can include the desired space type, size, location, building, and so forth. Once
submitted, as Space Assignment request get auto-generated in the requested location/shell.
Once reviewed, a space can them be assigned to the requester.

104
Unifier Facilities Management

Move Management
Move Requests can be submitted by users from the portal interface. The move requests
includes the current employee’s location, building, space number, and so forth. and the desired
location information. Submitting a Move Request auto-generates a Move Work Order in the
desired “move to” location shell. Once a Move Work Order is approved, the employee’s record is
updated with the new location and the assigned space gets updated with the employee’s
information.

Room Reservations
Room Reservations is a business process to facilitate the ability to reserve a usable space,
provided that the space is marked as available for reservation. The process provides the user
with date and time fields for the requested space and a calendar-like interface show spaces that
are available within the specified date/time range. Once approved, the reserved space’s
calendar shows that time block as “reserved”.

Facilities: Condition Assessment Management


Assessing facility condition is an important part of management and maintenance. This task
includes inspecting, collecting, analyzing, and reporting on the condition of the entire facility or
each building system (for example, foundation, roof construction, exterior enclosure, elevators
and lifts, plumbing, HVAC, and more). Such assessments are primarily used to support
decision-makers in their annual budgeting and maintenance project planning.
Condition Assessment management enables you to manage:
 Facility Inspections
 UNIFORMAT II System Codes
 Facility Condition Index (FCI) Index
 Facility Condition Manager

Note: Information about the Condition Assessment Management


Business Processes (BPs) is provided below.

Facility Inspections
Facility condition assessment is an industry term that describes the process of a qualified group
of trained industry professionals performing an inspection and analysis of the condition of a
facility or group of facilities that may vary in terms of age, design, construction methods, and
materials.
The purpose of these inspections is to collect data related to the various building systems and
assets and capture the condition, deficiency, required deferred maintenance costs and
estimated replacement costs. All this data is then used to analyze and calculate the overall FCI,
facility condition index.
The facility inspection process provides the technician/inspectors the ability to capture this data
and tag each inspection against a Building Systems Code, using the Uniformat II standard code
structure.

UNIFORMAT II System Codes


The solution is delivered with templates of the Uniformat II code structure as part of the Facility
Condition Manager setup.

114
Unifier Facilities Management

Facility Condition Index (FCI)


FCI is the industry standard, method, or formula that is used in facilities management in order to
enable the owner compare the conditions of a group of facilities. The resulting information can
be used for determining the course of action regarding facilities repair, maintenance, assets,
systems, and so forth.

Facility Condition Manager


The Facility Condition Manager analyzes the data attained from facilities inspection and
calculates the FCI for each facility individually, or for all facilities together.

The Lease request has all the data that will be used to create the actual lease agreement
including the general terms, conditions, dates, clauses, payments, security deposit information,
and so forth.

Leases
A lease agreement record is the master record that captures all data related to executing and
managing a lease. It supports both the Tenant (Lessee) and the Landlord (Lessor) lease types.
Leases can be a Primary Lease or a Sub-lease.

120
Unifier Real Estate Management

Lease records maintain all the data that related to a commercial lease including, but limited to
the following:
 General Lease information such as lease name, number, type, classification, execution date,
etc..
 Landlord and Tenant Information such as names, contact information, addresses, etc..
 Leased Space Information such as Space Name, location, Area/Size, etc..
 Key Lease Terms such as Term Periods, Commencement and Expiration dates, Monthly
and Annual Rent, Extension Options, etc..
 Security Deposit Information such as Deposit Amount paid, date, Refund, refund date, etc..
 Capital or Operating Lease data to support the classification of the lease as Capital or
Expense lease, per the new FASB13 guidelines.
In addition, each lease provides the payment setup parameters related to the recurring or
one-time payments for payment types such as Base Rent, CAM, Utilities, Insurance, and so
forth.
The lease process also supports the ability to specify different payment frequencies, Payment
Proration methods, Payment Due Dates, Straight Line provisions, Payment Escalation methods
and amounts, and so forth.
The lease process automates the monthly billing process through an automated system
generated Payment Requests or Lease Invoices.
Lease Key Dates are also supported with the ability to automate action items and assignments
on critical events such as Lease renewals, Option Exercise Dates, and so forth.

Lease Contacts
Lease Contacts is a process to maintain names and contact information for Landlords and
Tenants.

Common Area Maintenance (CAM) Reconciliation


The CAM Reconciliation process is used at the end of certain periods (typically annually or
semi-annually) to reconcile the amount of payments made towards CAM with the actual CAM
obligations.
For Landlords, it serves as a way to figure out if tenants still owe any additional CAM charges or
not. For Tenants, it serves to validate that any additional CAM invoices are valid compared to
what has been paid for that period.
The CAM reconciliation process auto-generates a Lease Invoice process for any variance
between the actual CAM charges and the amount already paid for a defined period of time. In
this case, it supports the Landlord use case invoicing the tenants.

Lease Actions
Lease Actions are BP records auto-generated from the Lease record for certain Critical Dates
that require an action/task and follow up from someone assigned this action.

121
Unifier Facilities and Asset Management User Guide

Lease Amendment Requirements


Lease Amendment Requests are used to request a modification to an existing Lease and has
significant impact on the overall terms or payments of the lease to justify amending the original
lease record.

a Lease Mended Request record gets auto-generated is is routed for review and approval. Once
approved, the process does two things:
 The original lease record status changes to “Amended”
 A New Lease record gets created with the new amended/modified data.
The newly created lease record is marked as Active and the Amendment Number field is
updated. Mind you that the Primary Lease Number remains the same in spite of a new lease
record number.

Lease Invoices
Lease Invoices are auto-generated from the lease record of type Landlord. They are typically
invoices sent out to tenants for payment of Rent, Utilities, CAM, Insurance or other types of
charges. The lease invoice record has a reference to the lease record that generated it and line
items are automatically populated with the relevant charge type and amount. Lease Invoices are
then routed for review and approval.

Lease Payments

payment requests sent out to lease administration groups at the tenant’s organization who are
responsible for processing lease payments to landlords. Lease Payment requests can be for
Rent, Utilities, CAM, Insurance or other types of charges.
The Lease Payment record has a reference to the lease record that generated it and line items
are automatically populated with the relevant charge type and amount. Lease Payments are

Real Estate: Transactions Management


Primavera Unifier Real Estate Management supports a variety of common real estate
transaction types such as site selection and acquisition, dispositions, new lease initiation,
subleasing and lease termination, and more. Flexible workflows are used to manage the scope,
tasks, and deadlines associated with each transaction. As a result, users can route, review, and
approve transactions and track and manage every step of the transaction process. Transaction
projects can be created for complex real estate transactions such as new site selection and
acquisition or disposition. Scope, schedules, costs, documents, and related due diligence
processes (including candidate sites and site comparisons) can all be managed in these
transaction projects. And like all Primavera Unifier solutions, Primavera Unifier Real Estate
Management provides task reminders, notifications, document management, messaging, and
reporting.
Transaction management enables you to manage:
 Prospective Properties
 Property Acquisitions
 Property Dispositions
 Property Creation
 Transaction Management Business Processes

Note: Information about the Transactions Management Business


Processes (BPs) is provided below.

142
Unifier Real Estate Management

Prospective Properties
Identifying the prospective properties is a process used to capture all of the relevant data on
properties of interest and under consideration for acquisition, or leasing. The data captured
through this process is used in the property acquisition process in order to select the best
property that meets the criteria.

Property Acquisitions
The property acquisitions is a process used for specifying the needs and criteria related to a real
estate acquisition transaction. In this process, each criteria is prioritized with a weight value,
based on the importance to the acquisition initiative. On the line items, the user selects
properties from the prospective properties and rates each property data according to how close
it satisfies the acquisition needs and criteria.
The information collected during this process is used to auto-calculate a score for each property
under consideration. The score enables the user make an informed decision about a prospective
property.

Note: An additional step is included to help complete the transaction and


include the property to the real estate portfolio by automatically creating
the property Shell and place it in the proper location in the overall real
estate portfolio hierarchy.

Property Dispositions
Property dispositions is a simple process that identifies the property that will be disposed and
provides the justification/reason for the disposition. Once approved, the property-ownership
status changes to “Disposed”.
The Property Disposition process is used when a property (Building, Land or Linear Asset) is
