iDrawings also generates the square footage reports that show the space assignments for various departments and functions in the hospital. Before this system was put in place, we had to calculate the square footages from drawings which was extremely time consuming and prone to errors. With iDrawings, the space assignment reports are always current and available.

The iDrawings® application has an easy-to-use interface; for example, changing the assignment of a room from one cost center to another can be done easily with a couple of key strokes. The system allocates rooms to a number of cost centers and the aggregation is easily and automatically completed. It can prorate the common areas among many cost centers if needed. The graphical interface gives a spatial view of departmental locations.” “iDrawings® has proved extremely helpful to me in other areas also. For example, it maintains a repository of all current drawings that can be accessed by my staff, whenever they need them. Additionally, we recently conducted our Statement of Condition survey in preparation for our upcoming accreditation inspection. iDrawings® helped us share drawings and Life Safety information among a number of stakeholders during this process. The result was a thorough assessment and documentation of our condition. Having current drawings greatly improved the timeliness and quality of our review. Overall, I believe that Indus Systems’ services, including iDrawings®, offer tremendous value to professionals managing hospitals and other facilities.
