About this episode

Billy Holder, CFM is Founder & CEO at Project Aidra where he is as a dynamic and tech-savvy facilities professional who is passionate about driving facility management innovation. Mike Petrusky asks Billy about his FM career journey and how it led to the founding of Project Aidra, a company dedicated to building a future where more intelligent, automated, and precise property inspection is possible. They explore the importance of taking a holistic view of the built environment, including the people occupying our facilities. Billy says the challenges facing the FM industry include staffing shortages and the need to leverage technology but he encourages us to keep technology "human-centered," ensuring it augments rather than replaces human intuition and knowledge. There is great potential for technologies like AI, reality capture, and IoT sensors to improve asset management and facility condition assessments, so Mike and Billy offer the inspiration you will need to be an Asset Champion in your organization!
