Trusted by 7,000+ facilities in 70+ countries, FacilityOS automates key processes, simplifies regulatory compliance, enhances security measures, and optimizes facility operations.
Archie is a modern workplace management tool built primarily for hybrid offices and coworking spaces, focused on desk booking, meeting room scheduling, visitor management, and workplace analytics in a simple, user-friendly platform.
While Archie helps teams organize space and improve employee experience, FacilityOS is designed to run the entire facility—connecting operations, safety, security, and compliance into one system with real-time visibility and enforced workflows.

Facility Management
That Scales
With FacilityOS, you can start small with just one or two facilities, and scale up to AI-Powered facility management across your enterprise. One integrated system to track visitors, manage contractor compliance, optimize mail and assets, automate compliance workflows, strengthen emergency preparedness, identify risks early, respond faster to incidents, and streamline daily operations.
Turnkey Hardware Management
FacilityOS ships fully managed, MDM-enrolled and pre-configured kiosks (iPad, stand, printer, badges) with lifetime warranty, so customers avoid sourcing and maintaining their own hardware.
Integrated Evacuation & Emergency Management
FacilityOS moves beyond basic emergency notifications, with a full EmergencyOS module that includes digital roll call, two-way communication, and automated drill reporting.
Manufacturing & Compliance-Focused Workflows
FacilityOS is built for industrial and regulated environments with features like contractor management, safety training, PPE tracking, and compliance support (ITAR, ISO, FDA, GMP), which go beyond Archies’s office-focused feature set.
Same Go-Live Timeline with More Depth
While both platforms average 1 month to go live, the end result is not the same. FacilityOS delivers a more configured rollout, not a basic setup.
Solution Tailored to Regulated Environments
The platform can be tailored and easily adapted to how your sites actually run, including visitor types, routing, approvals, and policy steps.
Strong Operational Readiness
Built to support audits, safety workflows, and future expansion means the system is designed to produce reliable records, support repeatable processes, and reduce gaps when requirements change.
Platform That Grows With You
Visitor management that does not limit what comes next means you can start with basic check-in today without boxing yourself into a tool you will outgrow.
No Need to Trade Speed for Capability
Both platforms average one month to go live. The difference is that FacilityOS is configured to support complex workflows within that same timeframe, rather than delivering a basic one-size-fits-all experience.
The System Holds Up as Your Requirements Evolve
Archie performs well for straightforward visitor tracking. FacilityOS is designed for environments where visitor data may need to support audits, safety procedures, or integration with other systems.
You Avoid an Early Re-Evaluation
Lightweight tools often work well initially. Many organizations switch later when they outgrow basic workflows. FacilityOS is designed to grow with your evolving needs, so you won’t need to worry about replacing your visitor management system as needs change.
What to Expect With FacilityOS
A visitor management platform built for operational facilities, not lightweight use cases. FacilityOS is built for organizations that require visitor management to support real operational requirements across manufacturing, healthcare, and other regulated environments.
