Solutions for public sector
Higher Education
Universities manage sprawling campuses with aging infrastructure, limited capital budgets, and sustainability commitments. As experienced facilities staff retire, institutional knowledge walks out the door.
With Willow, school districts can:
- Unify 100+ buildings into a single digital twin
- Predict equipment failures before they disrupt learning
- Optimize energy consumption across dormitories, academic buildings, and athletics facilities based on real-time occupancy and class schedules
- Preserve institutional knowledge by codifying maintenance expertise into AI-driven workflows
K-12 School Districts
School districts operate under constant budget pressure while maintaining safe, comfortable learning environments across multiple facilities. Energy costs consume budgets that could go to students. HVAC failures during class hours disrupt learning.
With Willow, school districts can:
- Optimize HVAC based on class schedules and real-time occupancy
- Schedule maintenance during breaks, not class time
- Track indoor air quality to ensure healthy learning environments
- Automate work order creation and routing for faster issue resolution
Healthcare Systems
Healthcare facilities cannot afford downtime. Critical systems, like operating room equipment, medical gas systems, and emergency power, must maintain 24/7 reliability. Joint Commission compliance requires meticulous documentation. Energy costs strain already tight budgets.
With Willow, healthcare systems see:
- Get a unified view across distributed facilities
- Reduce emergency repair costs with predictive maintenance
- Achieve measurable taxpayer savings through energy optimization
- Automated reporting for sustainability initiatives and operational efficiency.
State & Local Government
Government facilities operate with lean budgets and aging infrastructure. Taxpayers demand accountability for every dollar spent. Sustainability mandates require measurable progress.
With Willow, government organizations can:
- Get a unified view across distributed facilities
- Reduce emergency repair costs with predictive maintenance
- Achieve measurable taxpayer savings through energy optimization
- Automated reporting for sustainability initiatives and operational efficiency.
Airports & Transportation
Transportation facilities operate 24/7 with zero tolerance for downtime. Passenger experience depends on functional HVAC, escalators, jet bridges, and baggage systems. Managing hundreds of thousands of assets across sprawling campuses creates operational complexity.
With Willow, facilities can:
- Manage assets at massive scale with predictive intelligence
- Schedule maintenance during off-peak hours to minimize passenger impact
- Unify disparate building and operational systems into single source of truth
Most facilities teams detect faults after they happen.
