Case Study: Optimizing University Estate Management with IWMS.



Case Study: Digital Transformation for a Leading UK Institution

The Challenge

The client was managing a diverse property portfolio using fragmented legacy systems and manual spreadsheets. This led to "data silos," inconsistent reporting, and a lack of visibility into long-term maintenance liabilities.


Our Approach

Elderbray Limited was engaged to lead the end-to-end IWMS implementation. Our strategy focused on:

  • Requirement Alignment: Mapping complex university workflows to software capabilities.

  • Data Integrity: Extracting and "scrubbing" 10,000+ asset records for migration.

  • Stakeholder Buy-in: Conducting tailored training for site teams and executive leadership.



The Result



  • 30% Improvement in reactive maintenance response times.

  • 100% Compliance visibility across the entire estate.

  • Single Source of Truth: Real-time financial and operational reporting for the board.
