AI moves from buzz to backbone in real estate operations, says Facilio founder
Facilio's CEO, Prabhu Ramachandran, on how AI is transforming compliance, visibility, and performance across building portfolios. Artificial intelligence is redefining real estate operations by addressing the everyday challenges faced by facility managers—missed SLAs, compliance gaps, and delayed issue resolution. Facilio is harnessing AI and IoT to unify disconnected systems, enabling smarter, faster decision-making across entire portfolios. Prabhu Ramachandran, Founder and CEO of Facilio, explains how the company is helping real estate and FM firms achieve measurable impact through a connected operational platform, with the Middle East emerging as a key region for success. Interview Excerpts: AI in real estate has moved beyond buzz—how is Facilio enabling measurable impact across compliance, issue resolution, and operational visibility? AI is finally delivering on its promise in real estate—not as a futuristic idea, but as a hands-on tool to solve the everyday bottlenecks that facility teams deal with. Facilio brings AI into the heart of building operations, where the pain is real: delayed resolutions, missed SLAs, compliance scrambling, and a lack of real-time visibility. We are building AI capabilities to help facility managers prioritise work orders, assign the right technician instantly, surface hidden patterns in compliance failures, and spot risks before they escalate. Instead of hunting through spreadsheets or chasing teams for updates, managers can now see exactly where things stand—and more importantly, what actions will move the needle. The result? Problems are resolved faster, audits become routine instead of stressful, and teams stay ahead of issues rather than reacting to them. This is how AI becomes a daily operational advantage, not just a buzzword. You often say leaders don't need more tech, but connected tech—how does Facilio bridge people, processes, and systems using AI and IoT? Facility management has no shortage of tools—just a shortage of connected intelligence. Teams juggle a mix of apps, vendor systems, emails, and spreadsheets. The problem isn't lack of technology; it's that the systems don't talk to each other, and people are left bridging the gaps manually. Facilio changes that. Our platform brings AI and IoT together to stitch those silos into a single operational brain. Work orders, technician skills, asset health, energy usage, vendor response—all of it flows into one connected layer. AI then steps in to make sense of it, recommend actions, or trigger workflows in real time. This gives every team member—from a technician in the field to a regional ops lead—the ability to act faster, smarter, and with full context. It's not about automating tasks in isolation, but about orchestrating operations with intelligence. As cost-cutting hits its limits, where do you see the biggest opportunities for AI to unlock long-term value in real estate portfolios? Most portfolios have already squeezed the easy cost levers—cutting headcount, renegotiating contracts, deferring maintenance. But that's not sustainable. The next frontier is performance at scale—and that's where AI shines. AI helps shift from managing buildings to optimising them. Think: predicting which equipment is likely to fail next week, identifying which vendors are underperforming, spotting which sites have hidden compliance risks or missed revenue. It transforms operations from reactive to precision-led. The biggest long-term value? Visibility and control at the portfolio level. Instead of managing one building at a time, you can steer dozens—or hundreds of sites with the same clarity and consistency. 'AI isn't just helping teams do more with less—it's helping them do better with what they already have.' Why is a unified operations platform the missing piece in facilities management, and how is Facilio filling that gap? Facilities management has been stuck in fragmented workflows for too long. One app for work orders. Another for energy. A third for compliance. The result? Gaps, delays, and missed opportunities. What's missing is a single operating layer that ties it all together. Facilio was built to be that layer—a real-time platform where operations, maintenance, sustainability, and compliance come together, guided by live data and AI. This unified model doesn't just reduce tool sprawl. It unlocks a new way of operating—where every decision is informed by context, every process can adapt in real time, and every stakeholder (internal or external) works from the same source of truth. That's how we help teams stay ahead, not just keep up. In the Middle East, AI is already driving results—can you share examples of how Facilio is helping FM firms exceed compliance without added overhead? The Middle East is leading the charge in modern FM, especially in high-performance portfolios. We've seen forward-thinking customers embrace AI not just for innovation's sake, but to solve everyday pains—especially around compliance and reporting. Instead of manually tracking SLA breaches or scrambling to compile ESG data, teams using Facilio now get live dashboards that show exactly where they stand. Faults are flagged before they become failures. Reports are generated automatically. Technicians know what to fix and where to go—before someone escalates the issue. The impact? Compliance becomes built-in, not bolted on. Teams improve performance without needing more people or firefighting more problems. In one case, a leading commercial development in Dubai unified all their building systems—from HVAC to lifts—under a single pane of glass. Another cut reporting time by 70% and rolled out energy programs portfolio-wide in weeks, not months. As for the third – an FM service provider in the UAE digitised its end-to-end workflows with Facilio—resulting in a 13% boost in workforce productivity, improved SLA adherence, and fully embedded compliance practices. By enabling real-time reporting and empowering mobile teams, they eliminated the need for manual audits across more than 300 buildings. These aren't pilots or ideas—they're results already happening, and they show what's possible when FM leaders choose a platform built for continuous improvement, not just digital record-keeping.

An incredible Bvlgari resort is coming to Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi's luxury hospitality scene is set for a major glow-up. Italian luxury brand Bvlgari has announced a new resort and private mansions development in the UAE capital, in partnership with local real estate powerhouse Eagle Hills. The project, named Bvlgari Resort & Mansions Abu Dhabi, is set to open in 2030 and promises to become one of the region's most exclusive escapes and one of Abu Dhabi's best hotels. The new destination will be set on a private, horseshoe-shaped island with sweeping views of the open sea on one side and the iconic Qasr Al Watan and Abu Dhabi skyline on the other. Think total seclusion, a dramatic sense of arrival and sunset views that could rival any in the region. Access will be via a purpose-built bridge or by sea, adding to the resort's sense of privacy and exclusivity. The project will include a luxury resort with 60 rooms and suites, 30 beachside villas with private pools and 90 high-end mansions. Each element is designed to blend Italian elegance with Arabian heritage, with architecture by Milan-based ACPV ARCHITECTS Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel and landscape design by LAND SRL. The vision? A sculptural, gold-and-glass retreat rising from the sand – infused with regional identity and international flair. Guests can without a doubt expect the full Bvlgari experience: impeccable design, flawless service and world-class dining. The resort will feature signature restaurants such as Il Ristorante – Niko Romito, curated by award-winning chef and Hōseki, Bvlgari's exclusive Japanese concept. Also on offer will be a refined Turkish restaurant, the stylish Bvlgari Bar, La Spiaggia beachside dining and the brand's much-loved Il Caffè and Bvlgari Dolci. We're seriously not complaining. A standout wellness offering is also in the works. The resort will house a 2,000 sqm spa with a 25-meter lap pool, a state-of-the-art fitness centre and a landscaped wellness sanctuary designed to pay tribute to the region's cultural and environmental traditions. There's also a 40-berth private marina and Yacht Club with an exclusive membership programme, private beach and extensive water sports options, all designed to elevate the coastal lifestyle experience. For those looking to call this place home, the 90 private mansions – some with their own docks, no less, others with uninterrupted sea or cove views – promise a new level of waterfront living. Ranging from 1,650 to 2,500 sqm, the homes will come with private beaches, sweeping views and designs that fuse local influence with global sophistication. Behind the development is Eagle Hills, the real estate firm founded by Mohamed Alabbar, the name behind projects like Downtown Dubai and the Belgrade Waterfront. With developments in over 18 countries, Eagle Hills is no stranger to crafting destination landmarks – and this latest collaboration with Bvlgari looks set to do just that. The opening may still be five years away, but Bvlgari Resort & Mansions Abu Dhabi is already shaping up to be one of the capital's most talked-about future addresses. Jean-Christophe Babin, CEO of Bvlgari said: 'With Bvlgari Resort & Mansions Abu Dhabi, we continue our magnificent journey of bringing Bvlgari's distinctive elegance and craftsmanship to the world's most remarkable destinations. 'This project is a tribute to Abu Dhabi's unique cultural identity, blending timeless sophistication with modern luxury. This project will set a new milestone in Haute Hospitality and I'm particularly happy to develop it with our long-standing Retail Partner and friend, Mohamed Alabbar, always striving for the highest standards'. Mohamed Alabbar, Founder and Chairman of Eagle Hills, added: 'Abu Dhabi has always stood for vision and grace. This partnership with Bvlgari reaffirms our commitment to placing the Emirate at the epicentre of luxury living – where exceptional design, exclusivity, and Arabian soul converge.' Patricia Viel, CEO of ACPV ARCHITECTS, said: 'The project captures the best aspects of its location – secluded and immersed in nature and the sea – while remaining within easy reach of central Abu Dhabi. 'Life on the island is enriched by a diverse landscape, carefully designed environments, and sweeping views of both the sea and the city. The Bulgari Resort & Mansions offers a thoughtfully curated setting that fosters a strong sense of place. The interplay of architecture, natural surroundings, and exceptional amenities creates a distinctive and refined living environment.'
