Archibus Foundations Getting Started Path

Depending on operations at your site, one user may execute all of the Foundation Manager tasks, or the tasks might be divided by multiple users, such as a CAD manager, facility manager, and business process manager.

For information on these types of users and how they work with Archibus Foundations, see the Archibus Foundations Getting Started Path.

Foundations Home Page

A facility manager uses the Foundations home page to review metrics and statistics about the facility and services. When reviewing the Workplace Metrics panel, you can click on the panel to access information about how the data is calculated.
