In recent years, a number of proptech companies have emerged with the ambition of helping property owners move from analogue to digital ways of working. Many property owners are now aiming to build an ecosystem of services that complement each other, a reality made possible through system integrations.

One example is the integration between Vyer and DeDU.

Systems that talk to each other, without changing the way you work

Managing a building sustainably requires information to flow freely through the organisation. The growing proptech market offers a range of solutions for digitalising property information, but the real value emerges when systems are connected to each other.

As a property owner, you can now tailor your own set of tools as platforms communicate in ways they simply did not before. Data you already collect in one system can enrich another, without changing your way of working.

The Vyer and DeDU integration

Vyer has worked together with WSP, the developers of DeDU, to build an integration that allows the two systems to exchange data and enrich the user experience for shared customers.

The integration means that work orders can be reported in DeDU using Vyer's interactive maps. This gives the operations technician carrying out the work access to valuable location data, making it easier to navigate to the right place. It also enables facility management staff to work proactively and make better procurement decisions, based on statistics showing which types of equipment generate the most work orders.

I previously worked as an operations manager and operations technician. The biggest challenge is always finding the right documentation and information. By integrating a drawing management system into your work order system, you save many hours.

New value for property owners through data integrations

Most property owners today use systems from several different suppliers. A key part of the digitalisation process is therefore deciding which system is used for what, and creating connections between them.

I believe digital twins and proptech collaborations are part of the natural evolution of the industry. No single system does everything best. Customers should be able to pick the best parts from each system to meet their facility management needs.
— Robert Wåhlin, WSP

When proptech companies focus on developing technology within different niches and collaborate to store and share information, new value is created for customers. Identify what creates business value, keep the end user in mind, and bring in data that simplifies facility management.
