About Us
M2 was founded in 1998 by facility management professionals to provide Facility Operations, Business Process Analysis and Management Solutions to a variety of building owners and operators including: Corporate Real Estate, Hospitality, Education, Healthcare, Multi-Family Living, Retail and many Facility Management Outsourcers.
In 1998, M2 pioneered Application Hosting for Enterprise Asset Management Software (Maximo®). We began to offer both client owned software Application Hosting as well as Software as a Service (SaaS).Today our Mantis Application Hosting Solution, both Maximo® and TRIRIGA® based, serves over 12000 users at over 300 sites for more than 40 clients. This gives us day-to-day contact with the challenges facing the facility operations staff, together with unique insight into the solutions that are today’s commercial best practices.
M2 works with both consultants and end-users to fully implement the TRIRIGA® Solution in a variety of circumstances. Our core strength is the understanding and familiarity with the underlying business processes of the customer, and how best to enable them using this technology.
