From CAFM to Holistic Infrastructure Lifecycle Management
Why the Future of Facility Management Lies in Infrastructure Lifecycle Management
On June 29 and 30, 2026,KENEXOS® will be exhibiting alongsideVITRICON® at the CAFM Trade Fair & Congress at the Esperanto Congress and Cultural Center in Fulda.
The event is considered one of the most important industry gatherings for digitalization, CAFM, building management, and real estate operations in the German-speaking world. ForKENEXOS®, the trade show offers the ideal platform to demonstrate how modern infrastructure lifecycle management solutions bridge the gaps between planning, construction, operations, and maintenance.
Buildings don’t think in terms of project phases
In many organizations, digital transformation still stops at the boundaries of individual departments.
While planning and construction are often carried out using modern digital tools, operators and facility management teams frequently have to start from scratch when it comes to collecting and organizing information after the handover. Valuable knowledge is lost, processes are duplicated, and data must be maintained multiple times.
This results in disjointed systems, rising costs, and limited transparency regarding the actual condition of buildings, facilities, and infrastructure.
That is whyKENEXOS® takes a different approach.
A platform for the entire lifecycle
As a platform for infrastructure lifecycle management,KENEXOS® integrates all relevant lifecycle phases of a property or infrastructure onto a single technological foundation.
From initial planning through construction and modernization projects to operations, maintenance, energy management, and long-term portfolio development, seamless digital processes are created without any system disconnects.
As a result, organizations benefit from:
- Consistent data structures across all lifecycle phases
- Seamless workflows between construction, operations, and service
- Centralized Documentation and Traceability
- Improved data quality and transparency
- Reduced software and operating costs
- Faster decision-making processes
- Future-proof integration and automation options
VITRICON® is becoming part of theKENEXOS® platform
An important milestone in this process is the full integration ofVITRICON® into theKENEXOS® platform.
For more than 20 years,VITRICON® has been helping businesses and public institutions digitize their facility management processes. Thanks to this integration, customers now benefit from a modern platform architecture, expanded integration capabilities, and a seamless connection between facility management and infrastructure lifecycle management.
The proven CAFM features ofVITRICON® are retained while being enhanced with the capabilities of a comprehensive lifecycle platform.
Digitalization doesn’t end with the completion of a building
The greatest potential does not arise solely during the planning or construction phases.
They arise when information remains available for decades and can be used by all parties involved.
It is precisely this comprehensive view of buildings, facilities, and infrastructure that is at the heart of KENEXOS®’s Infrastructure Lifecycle Management.
Come visit us in Fulda
At the CAFM TRADE FAIR & CONGRESS 2026, the teams fromKENEXOS® andVITRICON® will use concrete real-world examples to demonstrate how companies, municipalities, operators, and public institutions can digitally manage their infrastructure throughout its entire lifecycle.
The focus is particularly on facility management, energy management, maintenance management, construction project management, and digital lifecycle processes.
We look forward to meeting with customers, partners, and industry experts in person in Fulda.
Feel free to schedule a meeting with our on-site team today.
