fmfirst – the Ronseal of FM software

Let’s face it, FM software isn’t fun and exciting. It is a practical and functional resource that can, and should, make your job easier when managing multiple sites and assets.

What was once a niche market is now a vast list of different suppliers. With many referring to themselves as top of their field with phrases like UK’s best CAFM system, the leading supplier of…, #1 Facilities Management System, it can be very confusing. Also, not everyone can be the best.

 If you Google ‘Number 1 Facilities Management Software, even the AI suggests that “there is no single ‘number 1’ facility management software; the best choice depends on factors like company size, industry, and specific needs.” And we couldn’t agree more.

 The Ronseal phrase

In 1994, Ronseal, known for its wood care products, hired a marketing company to create a campaign that advertised their products without trying too hard. They developed the slogan “Does exactly what it says on the tin”, which has grown to become a widely used idiomatic expression in the UK.

Ronseal created that slogan to represent that their product was ‘open, honest and delivers against its promise.’ It was to demonstrate their no-nonsense commitment to product effectiveness, integrity, and simplicity. We can relate.

Asckey’s company ethos is split across two areas: 1) Application development, 2) Client support. Both are equally important to us, as we want to be a brand that people can trust.

Our applications are branded fmfirst® because we put our clients’ facilities management needs first. We also only promise work that we can deliver. Our applications are built with a high level of flexibility, allowing each application to be tailored into a bespoke solution meeting the individual needs of the client. Its simple design aids its ease-of-use, and with our collaborative way of working, we can ensure it remains an effective tool that adds value and helps users to deliver an efficient and effective service. 

We do our best to develop software that “does what exactly it says on the tin”, a simple, reliable, and effective facilities management tool.
