New York, USA 22nd February 2022
Facilio, the property operations software platform leader, today announced it
has raised $35 million inSeries B financing led by Dragoneer Investment Group
with participation from Brookfield Growth and existing investors Accel India and
Tiger Global Management.
Founded in 2017, Facilio offers a unified software platform that leverages an
AI-led predictive engine to help real estate portfolios digitize processes and
optimize their property operations. Replacing the traditional and siloed software
landscape that has frustrated the market for decades, the solution aggregates data
from multiple, disconnected systems across portfolios into an integrated,
cloud-based platform, helping operations & maintenance [O&M] teams become
data-driven and agile. The platform encompasses a suite of SaaS applications
for maintenance [CMMS/CaFM solutions] and operational visibility, sustainability,
and remote equipment performance monitoring. This modern approach allows customers
to reduce operating costs, exceed sustainability targets, and elevate customer
experiences.
“Our customers understand that success in a post-pandemic world will be achieved
by driving efficiency gains and delivering smooth customer experiences,” said
Prabhu Ramachandran, Founder & CEO, Facilio. “We are uniquely positioned to
accelerate digital transformation in the built world and lead the industry’s
transition towards IoT-led connected buildings. This investment will allow us
to extend our market leadership, expand sales and marketing, and enable more
companies to reach success through a predictive, connected model of real estate
operations.”
Facilio has emerged as a next-generation leader in the $50 billion commercial
real estate-focused operations software market. It has established a broad,
global customer base and is rapidly gaining share with faster-than-market
sales growth across multiple geographies. Facilio’s growing list of
portfolio-scale deployments includes commercial office buildings,
retail chains, hospital systems, and higher-education campuses.
“Facilio has unlocked a world of potential with its AI-based predictive
approach to increase operational effectiveness,” said Eric Jones, Partner
at Dragoneer Investment Group. “We were blown away by the customer love
that Facilio receives from their diverse roster of global clients. The
company is on its way to revolutionizing operations for real estate
portfolios and we are proud to support this customer-obsessed team.”
Facilio excels in guiding real estate portfolios through their digital
transformation journey with its advanced IoT-native and mobile-first
product offerings. As a result, many leading organizations dealing
with outdated solutions from incumbent vendors are turning to Facilio.
“We have been customers of Facilio and now it's incredible to be a partner
in their journey,” said Josh Raffaelli, Managing Partner at Brookfield.
“What Prabhu and the team are building isn’t merely a great product
portfolio but a movement towards data-led property operations. The company
is writing the blueprint for how modern real estate portfolios will operate
in the next decade and beyond.”
Founded four years ago by Prabhu Ramachandran, Rajavel Subramanian, Krishnamoorthi
Rangasamy, and Yogendra Babu, Facilio has been defining and building the category
growth. Similar to how Salesforce is to customer management and ServiceNow is to IT
services management in today’s enterprise software categories, Facilio aims to build
the operations management cloud platform unifying field workforce processes and
infrastructure IoT data, in one place.
