We are proud to announce that CBD Facility Management has commissioned M-power software to design a preventative maintenance program software which can be customised to the requirements of each individual building.
The objectives of individual buildings including all aspects are taken into account and then built into the system. The software is easy to use and provides the user with the appropriate information needed to make effective maintenance decisions. The program allows for tracking of the history of each specific item.
The Draft Forest precinct Plans for Carlton, South Yarra, East Melbourne and Central City have been posted online for public viewing and comment.

CBD Facility Management was invited to attend the City Of Melbourne draft “Bicycle Plan” workshop. As managers of high-rise buildings which house bikes we considered it paramount to attend The broad goals of the workshop as we understand it, is to: Plan and deliver a connected cycling network Build high quality routes for local cycling trips Increase participation in cycling Make cycling safe Introduce advances in cycling innovation We are keen to see the above goals realised but our specific purpose for attending the workshop was to voice our concerns on the lack of secure bicycle storage both in current buildings and new developments By 2016, it is expected that cycling will account for 6 per cent of all trips to, from and within the city. The broad aim of the plan is to make Melbourne safer and more attractive for current and future cyclists. Our question is – Where will all these bikes be securely stored? Please call our office if you would like information on where and how to obtain valuable advise on bicycle storage. Call 03 9666 3324
