Compliance in FM is about far more than PPMs and inspections.

Today’s compliance teams manage contractor certifications, RAMS, permits, risk assessments, incidents, training records, compliance documentation and much more.

The challenge? Bringing it all together in one place.

Compliance in Facilities Management has evolved.

It’s no longer just about PPM schedules and certificates.

Risk assessments, RAMS, evacuation plans, contractor certifications, H&S documentation and evidence management all contribute to the bigger question:

Are we compliant?

Our latest blog explores the move towards centralised compliance dashboards and one single view of compliance.

You asked, we delivered!

Listening to client feedback is a critical part of our development process. Turning ideas, suggestions, and real-world challenges from our users into practical functionality helps make day-to-day operations easier.

One topic that remains high on the agenda is compliance management. But compliance is about far more than just PPMs and maintenance schedules. It also includes the management of:

📋 Statutory documentation
🧯 Fire safety records
⚡ Inspection certificates
🧪 Testing results
📄 Risk assessments and supporting documents
🏢 Property and building compliance records
🔍 Audits, reviews and evidence management

Historically, this information has spread across systems, folders, spreadsheets, and individual records.

Today, we’re pleased to announce a major enhancement designed to make things easier — introducing our enhanced Compliance Management capability together with a new centralised Compliance Dashboard.

The new functionality brings compliance information together into a single view, providing instant visibility of:

✅ Overall compliance performance
🏢 Compliance by client, region and building
⚠️ Overdue activities
📅 Upcoming reviews and inspections
🚨 Missing compliance records
📋 Mandatory vs non-mandatory gaps

Helping teams move beyond simply tracking PPMs and towards centralised compliance management, improved visibility, stronger governance, and proactive risk management across the estate.

Another enhancement shaped directly by client feedback.

For years, CAFM conversations focused on integrations — finance systems, BIM, CAD, IoT and APIs.

Now the focus is shifting towards AI, operational intelligence, and smarter decision-making.

But the pendulum continues to sway between priorities.

New blog https://www.tabsfm.com/media/blogs/the-changing-priority-of-cafm-integration-vs-ai-intelligence/

Explore how CAFM priorities are shifting from API integrations and smart building connectivity towards AI-driven operational intelligence, predictive analytics, and smarter decision-making.

Exciting new development in the Tabs CAFM system

We’ve introduced a brand-new RAMS approval and notification process — a highly requested feature designed to improve contractor safety and visibility across maintenance activities.

The Contractor Management system is superb supporting module for the management of contractors tasked with providing maintenance and other facilities/estates management services.

Last week at The Workplace Event, the footfall and quality of conversations felt noticeably different from previous exhibitions in recent years.

Has the industry moved back towards one major “main event” again?

We share our thoughts

Exciting news!!! 🎉

We’ve been awarded the contract for not one, but two NHS CAFM systems — with a third expected to follow shortly 👏

What makes this particularly rewarding is the reason behind the change. These organisations are moving away from outdated, unsupported, and increasingly expensive systems, and investing in a modern, flexible CAFM solution that’s built to deliver real value.

But beyond the technology, the real focus is on customer care. We’re hearing it more and more — organisations don’t want to feel like just another number with their provider. They want a partner who understands their challenges, supports them properly, and evolves with their needs.

That’s exactly what we aim to deliver.

Looking forward to working closely with these teams and building strong, long-term partnerships.

Recent conversations with clients in highly secure environments have highlighted a common challenge: Control vs flexibility.

On-premise or cloud CAFM? There’s no one-size-fits-all — it’s about what works for your organisation.
