Nickleby - real people for a change

Nickleby can offer property management services and software to education providers to help them manage, control and report on costs of property and estate maintenance.

These are challenging times for the higher and further education sectors. While overall spend in the sector is still increasing, the proportion spent on maintenance is decreasing, with some universities we've spoken to reporting a need to make 20% savings on current budgets. 

As well as managing costs, facilities managers face specific challenges in looking after their estates and physical assets. Campuses are often complex and sprawl over multiple locations, buildings may vary massively in age and condition - from listed status to new builds - and working practices are often decades out of date.

So, how do you get the control you need over your maintenance budgets? How do you reduce bureaucracy, maintain compliance and improve the value you get from your contractors?

You need Nickleby. We have decades of experience of reducing costs in property management and maintenance. Our proven systems, processes and people can control costs and reduce administrative overheads - whether it's by integrating our Emergense software with your existing working practices or by out-sourcing the management of any or all of the maintenance supply chain. 

We also increase the value you get from parts and equipment, by introducing lifecycle monitoring of new assets, and feeding that intelligence into your planned preventative maintenance.

Put simply - we eliminate waste - in the supply chain, in time spent managing your helpdesk, contractors, budgets and assets.

We make compliance simple. By reducing overheads, improving contractor performance and using your maintenance budget more intelligently we put you in complete control, with minimal fuss and effort, from day one.
