Our History
When you succeed, we succeed
Founded in the depths of the 2008 meltdown, and previously IDN (Infrastructure.net), we wanted to be a different kind of software company, one that cared about the people who developed the code, not the shareholders. The ones that worked hard to solve real customer problems, not pursue an endless cycle of upgrades with unnecessary disruption and costs.
To date, we are a self funded organization. We have no debt and no venture capital relationships. The company is proudly employee owned and solely focused on our mission to bring friendly, affordable cloud and mobile based facilities management software to an audience of both new customers and veterans of legacy IWMS (Integrated Workplace Management Systems) solutions.
We have designed our FloorPlate solution to address the real issues clients face with traditional infrastructure and management solutions – cost, usability, and implementation.
With over a decade of implementations in schools, universities, medical facilities and more, you can trust that FloorPlate will tailor itself seamlessly to any floorspace or facility space you can throw at it. We challenge you to find a software that is this flexible, robust and efficient for facilities management at our versatile price points.
It truly is a matter of — Your Buildings. Our Digital Solutions.
