A Winning Combination for Facility Maintenance and Security – FacilityONE and Cincinnati State
Cincinnati State is the FIRST College to Select the FacilityONE Facility Information Solution!
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 10 /PRNewswire/ — FacilityONE is proud to announce a first — Cincinnati State Technical and Community College has become the first school to adopt the FacilityONE Facility Information Solution. FacilityONE has taken its Facility Information Solution to schools to manage their facilities efficiently and keep our kids safe. FacilityONE’s premier Solution Partner, Cincinnati-based CMC Technologies’ Charlie Charnegie, said, “The decision at Cincinnati to be the first school to adopt FacilityONE was bold, innovative and just made good economic sense.” Ray Mirizzi, Director of Facilities at Cincinnati State said, “We took the first step toward creating a strong platform that will provide the environment to facilitate multiple facility management and security functions at Cincinnati State.” FacilityONE CEO, Dale Cain agreed and said, “The FacilityONE solution gives Cincinnati State a system that is an effective planning tool, a problem solving tool, a tool for maximum efficiency. They can make better use of budgets by combining efforts across facility management, security and construction. This one-of-a kind solution has become the platform for Cincinnati State to build on in the future when we take advantage of more extensive features and functions offered by the system.”

According to Mirizzi, “Data capture and storage is essential in making facility management decisions and sharing this critical information with other departments across the organization. We use the information for budgeting asset life cycle control and major capital improvements. With FacilityONE’s secure, web-based system, prints and data are used for campus security and we can share our facility security information as we are setting up relationships with local emergency responders for emergency preparedness planning.”
Mirizzi and Cincinnati State’s Environmental and Public Safety Director, Mike Wylie, have collaborated to maximize the use of the overall system. “I believe we’ve solved some critical issues in trying to maintain efficiencies and protect our most valuable assets – our students and faculty,” Wylie said.
Cain said, “The success of the combined solution at Cincinnati State proves that FacilityONE can apply the solution anywhere, especially facilities where several people reside or work — hospitals, hotels, office buildings, airports. FacilityONE is consulting on a confidential basis with several groups whose job is to make sure people are safe wherever they are.”
“We believe Cincinnati State has set the precedent for all schools,” says Cain. “Charlie Charnegie (CMC Technologies, Inc.) has been instrumental in consulting with Cincinnati State and ultimately implementing the system. We believe we’ve achieved our goal and we will continue to work with this valued customer to expand the services they have while supporting their efforts to communicate the solution’s effectiveness to other schools.”
