I have been thinking and doing more research about my initial idea. The end of construction divide, which aside from being the target problem, also present a development barrier as I personally do not have much information on the ins and out of the trade of facility management.
I have two choices in regards to this blind spot, either find the necessary training to become a FMP (facility management professional) or hire the expertise out to some one. The earlier route required more commitment on my part, time and more importantly money. Which I do not mind as long as there are sufficient proof that my idea can indeed fly.
I need to talk to more FMs to gather more information on the existing systems.
As I spend more time thinking about what is needed, it is increasingly evident that an universal translator of sort is needed, in essence that is the main function of the web site, depository for the building information and dispensing it in user friendly manner.
At the same time, the expanded envelope also make the project tremendously large and complex, it is beginning feel like it will be way beyond the scope of what my resources and experiences will allow. A potential approach will be to carefully assess the over all grand plan, and then attempting to implement an modular portions of the plan successfully and then grow from that established position. A candidate that comes to mind initially would be the training of the end user. It has the portion that contain the most amount of interest to me and is also relatively easy to implement.
