What OpenBlue Workplace is
OpenBlue Workplace is a paid, web-based system for workplace planning and management. It brings work order management, preventive maintenance, asset management, vendor management, and space management into one browser-accessed product. Work order management addresses workplace service tasks, while preventive maintenance supports planned upkeep. Asset management covers the organization’s physical assets, and vendor management handles supplier-related operations. Space management focuses on administering workplace areas. The product’s mobile access is web-based as well, so mobile users reach it through web technology rather than a separately listed mobile application. OpenBlue Workplace is associated with Johnson Controls, a company founded in 1885. Johnson Controls lists Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, as its North America operational headquarters. Organizations can consider the software when workplace operations require coordinated handling of requests, maintenance, assets, vendors, and spaces. Its web platform suits teams that prefer browser access for these activities. The paid pricing model is a central purchasing consideration.
