Most FM programmes run on spreadsheets and assumptions. AIM adds a visual layer beneath your operations: navigable digital environments where every asset is tagged, locatable, and measurable. Your team sees the building before they visit it. Your contractors arrive prepared. Your compliance evidence lives where it happened.
FM software tells you what maintenance is due. But if the asset data underneath is incomplete, outdated, or disconnected from the physical building, every programme built on top of it inherits the same gap.
Asset data starts degrading within 12 to 18 months of creation. Replacements go unrecorded, locations shift, and your register drifts further from reality with every quarter.
15 to 25% of contractor time on site is spent locating assets, not maintaining them. Without visual context, they arrive and navigate by guesswork.
Inspection reports, certificates, and photographic evidence sit in different systems. When an auditor asks for proof, your team scrambles across shared drives and inboxes.
Your planned preventive maintenance programme is only as reliable as the asset list it runs on. If that list is incomplete, your schedules miss assets and your coverage has blind spots.
The UK average sits at 50:50 planned versus reactive maintenance. The target is 80:20. Without accurate, accessible asset data, the ratio never shifts.
A row in a spreadsheet tells you there is a boiler in Plant Room 3. It does not tell you the access route, the surrounding pipework, or the clearance around it. Your teams fill those gaps on site, every time.
AIM does not replace your CAFM or CMMS. It sits underneath, providing the accurate, visual building asset management layer that those systems assume you already have.
Tag every asset directly inside a navigable digital environment. Boilers, distribution boards, fire doors, risers. Each one pinned to its real-world location with photos, notes, and metadata.
Visual asset data feeds your SFG20 programme with verified, location-accurate records. Your planned preventive maintenance schedules are built on what actually exists, not what was last surveyed three years ago.
Pin inspection reports, certificates, and photographic records to exact locations in the building. When an auditor asks for proof, you open the model and show them.
Share site-specific links so contractors can review the building before they arrive. They see the layout, the access points, and the assets they are working on. Fewer queries, fewer wasted visits.
Access every building in your portfolio from one dashboard. Compare conditions, track compliance status, and prioritise work across your entire estate without leaving your desk.
Take accurate measurements from the digital environment in 30 seconds. Room dimensions, clearance distances, pipe runs. No site visit required, no waiting for a surveyor.
SFG20 defines the maintenance schedules for every asset type in your building. It tells you what needs servicing, how often, and to what standard. But it cannot tell you what assets you actually have, where they are, or what condition they are in.
That is the gap. Most organisations run SFG20 programmes against incomplete or assumed asset lists, which means maintenance gets missed and compliance coverage has holes nobody sees until an audit.
AIM fills this gap. Every asset is captured visually, tagged with its location, type, and condition, and made accessible to anyone who needs it. Your SFG20 programme runs on verified data instead of assumptions.
Each capture builds a permanent, navigable record of the building. That single record supports every compliance programme your team manages.
Visual records of fire doors, compartmentation lines, escape routes, and fire-stopping. Evidence pinned to exact locations for Fire Safety Order compliance and audit readiness.
Water system mapping with schematic context. Identify tanks, calorifiers, dead legs, and outlet locations across the building. Support your L8 risk assessments with visual, verifiable records.
Document the exact locations of known and suspected asbestos-containing materials. Visual records support your asbestos management plan under CAR 2012 and give contractors clear location data before they start work.
Identify distribution boards, circuit routes, and testing points for EICR programmes. Visual asset identification means your electricians spend time testing, not searching.
Document lift motor rooms, access routes, and equipment locations for LOLER compliance. Engineers arrive with full visual context of the installation before they step on site.
Roof condition, window defects, cladding deterioration, external drainage. Capture the building envelope visually and track condition over time without scaffolding or repeated surveys.
No specialist surveyors. No disruption to existing workflows. Your existing site visits become data capture opportunities.
Your team walks through the building with a 360 camera. It takes as quick as it takes to walk around. No training, no specialist equipment beyond the camera itself.
Upload the footage. AIM processes it using AI and computer vision to build a navigable digital environment. Surface detection identifies rooms, assets, and building features automatically.
Every team member, contractor, and compliance lead gets access. Unlimited users, no per-seat licensing. One capture serves every department and every future project.
The Building Safety Act requires higher-risk buildings to maintain a golden thread of digital, structured building information throughout their lifecycle. This is not optional. It demands accurate, accessible records of the building's design, construction, and ongoing condition.
Most organisations do not yet have the infrastructure to meet this requirement. AIM provides it. Every capture creates a permanent, navigable digital record of the building. Assets, conditions, and compliance evidence are pinned to real locations and accessible to anyone with permission. That is the foundation the golden thread is built on.
