FM:Interact is a new campus space management system that replaces our existing Building Information System. The new system allows us all to view, manage and plan our space on campus better. FM:Interact can be accessed on any computer or mobile device and brings us many new features.
You can use FM:Interact to view and print up-to-date campus, building or floor plans. Room numbers, room types and departments are clearly displayed on these, including access facilities for disabled staff and students. Simply use the search box or interactive map to search and view the plans.
If you are an Operations Manager, Administrator, Surveyor, Timetabling Manager, Maintenance Manager or anyone else who works in space management, you will be assigned a specific role in FM:Interact:
The version of FM:Interact we are using has been specifically developed for the Higher Education sector. This allows us to give more detail in our legislative reporting requirements and our annual Resource Allocations Model submission. FM:Interact will also be developed over the coming year to include further estates information and ensure it integrates seamlessly with other University systems.
To gain an understanding of the new system, why not join one of the upcoming Teams sessions to view a live demonstration of FM:Interact and ask any questions that you may have? Simply complete the registration form to select one of the following sessions:
The existing Building Information System links on webpages will be switched over to FM:Interact at the end of June. For further information view the FM:Interact Frequently Asked Questions or email spaceresource@nottingham.ac.uk.

Great work by UoN Estates team and IS on this – works really well and a huge improvement on what we had.
We’re finding it really useful to prepare circulation routes and calculate room capacities in ways we couldn’t have easily done before.
