Summary: FSI’s new whitepaper benchmarks operational performance for healthcare facilities, offering data-based insights into asset management, staffing, and compliance across small, medium, and large hospitals. It helps departments identify areas needing optimization, supports data-driven decisions, and provides real-world comparisons to improve patient care while managing limited resources.

Key Takeaways:

  • FSI’s whitepaper supplies hard data to guide healthcare facilities in refining maintenance and resource allocation strategies.
  • By comparing practices across different hospital sizes, the whitepaper highlights opportunities for process improvements that can enhance operational efficiency and patient care.

FSI has announced the release of a whitepaper that offers benchmarking insights to healthcare facilities and HTM departments to compare operational performance metrics to averages among hospitals of varying sizes across the United States.

Titled “Using Your CMMS for Optimal Healthcare Facilities Maintenance Management,” the whitepaper is designed as a tool to help determine where a department is performing well or where optimizations need to be made, as well as offering real numbers to back up making necessary changes in existing processes.

Data Insights from Leading U.S. Hospitals

Pulling data points from hundreds of leading U.S. hospitals, this document offers a view into the performance of maintenance departments at small, medium, and large hospitals, spanning key areas like asset management, staffing and resource management, and compliance.

Readers will be able to:

  • View data from leading healthcare organizations to compare and utilize in advocating for changes
  • See connections between practices and behaviors in facilities management that indicate an opportunity for improvement or for widespread adoption
  • Understand differences between facilities management practices in small, medium, and large systems

Importance of Data-Driven Decision Making

“As a CMMS built by former healthcare professionals, we understand the pressures teams face to continually improve department performance with limited resources, and how essential it is to have hard data to base operational changes on to make that possible,” said Joe Stockman, director of product experience at FSI. “We are grateful to be able to offer a reference resource that healthcare leaders can use to support impactful decision-making and ultimately improve the care patients receive.”

According to FSI, healthcare systems face ever-increasing pressure to deliver high-quality care while managing tight budgets and it is necessary to not only compare operational performance to a hospital’s own historical data, but to look outward to how other locations and systems of similar size are maximizing their efficiency and what practices they are employing to do so.
