Software that enables Asset Intelligence
Software designed to support structured, governed asset information from project delivery through long‑term operation
Software designed for real building workflows
Managing building information is complex. Projects generate large volumes of documents and data. Estates teams need accurate records long after handover. Many organisations rely on disconnected systems that make information hard to find and difficult to trust.
Glider provides software designed to enable Asset Intelligence in the built environment. Our software helps teams capture, structure and govern asset information so it remains accurate, usable and trusted throughout the building lifecycle from project delivery into live operation and ongoing change.
EDocuments – Digital handover and O&M software
EDocuments is digital handover software used by contractors and project teams to create and deliver structured O&M information. It replaces manual document compilation with clear workflows, templates and validation processes.
EDocuments helps teams:
- Manage O&M manuals digitally
- Control supplier submissions
- Validate documents against requirements
- Track progress and resolve issues
- Deliver compliant digital handover information
EDocuments supports Asset Intelligence by ensuring asset information is complete, consistent and operationally usable from day one.
gliderbim® – Estate and asset information software
gliderbim® is estate software that enables Asset Intelligence by supporting the structured, governed management of asset information during the operate and maintain phase.
gliderbim® helps organisations:
- Maintain structured asset records
- Govern information as buildings change
- Manage documentation and data across portfolios
- Support access control and audit trails
- Keep information current across suppliers and teams
This software provides a structured, governed information foundation that enables Asset Intelligence across complex estates, without replacing operational systems.
How our software enables Asset Intelligence
Our software provides functionality that supports the five functions of Asset Intelligence across the full building lifecycle.
This functionality is what makes our asset information management software practical for everyday use.
Structured information
Information is organised using templates, metadata and clear structures. This makes records easier to find and easier to maintain.
Validation and quality control
Rules and workflows help ensure information is complete and accurate before it is relied upon.
Governance and change control
Permissions, approvals and audit trails help teams manage updates confidently as assets change.
Accessibility
Information is available to the people who need it, not locked inside systems that only specialists can use.
Integration readiness
Structured data supports smoother integration with CAFM systems, BMS platforms and reporting tools.
Asset Intelligence for the built environment
Asset Intelligence is the discipline of creating structured, validated and governed information that remains accurate and usable throughout the lifecycle of a built asset. It helps organisations make better decisions by ensuring the information they rely on is complete, consistent and easy to access when needed.
Asset Intelligence focuses on:
- Structuring information with clear naming, metadata and organisation that remove ambiguity and improve usability.
- Quality and completeness so information is checked, verified and trusted before it is used.
- Governance and traceability through controlled updates with clear ownership and audit history.
- Lifecycle continuity so information moves smoothly from project delivery into live operation and evolves as buildings change.
Glider’s software enables organisations to practise Asset Intelligence consistently across projects and estates.
Software and services that enable Asset Intelligence at scale
Glider combines software with specialist services to help organisations adopt, sustain and scale Asset Intelligence across the full building lifecycle. Many organisations lack the time, skills or internal capacity to define requirements, configure systems and sustain good information practices over time.
Glider combines software with specialist services to help customers succeed at every stage of their information management journey and that information is used across the entire building lifecycle.
Implementation and onboarding
Ensuring platforms are configured correctly and aligned to your real operational needs.
Digital handover support
Helping teams capture and validate information during construction and refurbishment.
Asset information management services
Supporting ongoing accuracy, governance and change control as buildings evolve.
