Spacewell boosts its MCS IWMS in 2020 to make building management smarter and more people-centric

MCS 20 upgrade brings life-cycle intelligence to building operations and empowers organizations to turn workplaces into strategic assets for business performance:

Antwerp, 05 march 2020 – Spacewell, a leading provider of building management software that is part of the listed Nemetschek Group, announces a major Q4 2020 upgrade of its MCS Integrated Workplace Management System (IWMS). The 2020 update – featuring a unified user interface design and cohesive user experience across devices – empowers organizations to leverage the opportunities of agile workplaces and helps them smarten up facility services and building management.

MCS has been a global leading IWMS solution for many years, recognized for its best-in-class mobile apps and native integration with one of the worlds’ leading smart building platforms. MCS provides its customers with a great depth of  integrated functionality, making it one of the leaders in the 2019 Verdantix Green Quadrant benchmark of integrated workplace management systems (IWMS).

Spacewell to launch MCS 20 and MCS ONE in 2020

Coming in Q4, MCS will be available in two flavours: MCS 20 and MCS ONE.

MCS 20 is the next big update to the current MCS  18 version. MCS 20 will help people be more productive, with a personal and intuitive experience that works across all their devices. MCS 20 is a next-generation IWMS designed to empower its users to do their best work, and to interact closely with the building, its occupants and the services provided. MCS 20 is available as on-premise or cloud-hosted software.

MCS ONE is Spacewell’s cloud-based version of MCS 20, delivered in a SaaS model. All clients using MCS ONE will share the same environment and functionality, with frequent, incremental updates happening automatically for all clients at the same time. MCS ONE will provide the same functionality as MCS 20 at the date of launch. With its dual offering of MCS ONE and Axxerion workflow-based property and facility management software, Spacewell is aligned with the growing market preference for SaaS solutions.

“With the 2020 MCS release, Spacewell continues to raise the bar for IWMS platforms,” said Eric Van Bael, CEO at Spacewell. “By embedding BIM data into IWMS and connecting with the IoT to collect data about operations and building utilization, MCS 20 extends the value of BIM beyond design and construction and opens the way to create digital twins that help owners and project teams leverage intelligence throughout the building life cycle.” 

Some of the most prominent and game-changing features of the new release include:

Designed to be easily configurable, Spacewell IWMS software provides best practices and rapid time-to-value, making it a trusted solution for large and medium-sized enterprises, public sector organizations, and facility and real estate services providers. The software also connects with the IoT to enable activity-based service delivery, drawing on real-time data about how spaces and services are being used.

ʺIn the 2019 Product Benchmark on Space and Workplace Management Software, Verdantix finds that Spacewell offers strong functionality across space management, workplace services delivery and wellbeing analytics,” said Ibrahim Yate, Industry Analyst at Verdantix. “In particular, Spacewell offers comprehensive analytics for insight into space utilization as well as occupant comfort trends, can minimize touchpoints with customers’ existing IT infrastructure to speed up deployments and supports the facilitation of agile working environments.”
