Facility managers in charge of multiple locations have new options at their disposal to help manage operations, with Ecotrak launching a self-service computerized maintenance management system and Mallcomm rebranding as Kinexio and launching a property management platform, the companies announced Monday.
Ecotrak Build is a self-service computerized maintenance management system that aims to make it easier for small businesses to install a CMMS system by removing implementation delays and expensive onboarding. To that end, the company has priced the platform at $25 a month per location, with support for up to 10 locations as part of a 30-day free trial.
Owners and operators can sign up in minutes, set up locations, and receive instant access to pre-vetted service providers, Ecotrak said Monday in a release.
The platform also offers unlimited work orders and invoices and a mobile app for on-the-go service requests, and is “ideal for quick-service restaurants, franchise owners, coffee shops, gyms, salons, convenience stores, and any other small business that depends on equipment working day in and day out,” Ecotrak says.
The launch comes a year after Ecotrak raised $30 million to bolster product development.
In Mallcomm’s rebranded Kinexio move, the company launched a property management application that includes an AI-driven data and intelligence platform.
The platform launch follows the company’s acquisition of MyTAG in November, which allowed the company to improve its capabilities in compliance, operational performance and security, Kinexio said in a release.
The new platform will continue to support core property management functions spanning work order tracking, facilities oversight, compliance management, vendor coordination, security communication, tenant engagement and asset management, according to the release.
In addition, it will also provide proactive issue detection and intelligence that “was previously buried in disconnected systems,” Kinexio said. The company accomplishes this by using AI to collect, unify and analyze operational and transactional data — including sales, maintenance logs, vendor performance, security incidents and occupier engagement metrics — across entire portfolios, it says.
“We’ve gone from enabling properties to be run more efficiently to giving our clients a competitive edge through data,” Kinexio CEO David Fuller-Watts said in a statement. “With our acquisition of MyTAG and our AI-enriched data capabilities, we’re uniquely positioned to help our customers use their data to drive better outcomes—from asset performance and leasing strategy to compliance, security, and customer experience.”
Kinexio supports more than 2,200 properties and 600,000 connected users across more than 85,000 retailers, the firm said.
