Building Data

Every room.
Every detail attached.

Room number, department, cost center, square footage, air pressure, ICRA level, smoke compartment. All of it lives on the room where it sits on the floor plan, not in a spreadsheet someone maintains.

  • Open a room and see everything recorded about it
  • Color the floor by department, room type, or air pressure
  • Square footage your finance team can put straight into a report

If it is a room on the floor plan, it is a room in the record.

Built for how room data actually gets used

Five things every hospital needs to know about a room. Open one to see it in the record.

Room number, name, department, cost center, square footage, and room type on every room in the building. The details live with the room, not in a spreadsheet on somebody’s drive.

A room changes on Tuesday. The record should say so on Tuesday.

Buildings change faster than the paperwork about them. This is the loop that keeps the two together.

Facilities team

A department moves, a room is split, an office becomes a storage room. The people working in the building know first, and today that is where the knowledge stops.

If the change moved a wall, the floor plan set updates through the Update Request Process and the room record follows the new plan. If no wall moved, the plan stays as it is and the record still reads right.

The questions that land on your desk

None of these are unusual. They are the ordinary week of a facilities team, before and after the room record exists.

The moment✗ Before✓ With Ruya
Finance asks for square footage by department
Someone measures a printed plan, then keys it into a spreadsheet
Department totals off the current plan, exported in a minute
Infection prevention asks which rooms are negative pressure
Ask whoever knows the building best, and hope they are in today
Filter the floor. Every room, with its pressure recorded
A department is renamed
Ten places to update, and three of them get missed
Change the room record once. Everything downstream reads the same
A surveyor asks what smoke compartment a room is in
Trace it by hand on a printed life safety plan
Open the room. It is on the record, with the plan
A renovation adds four rooms
The room list drifts from the plan until someone rebuilds it
The plan updates and the room record follows it

One room record, portfolio wide

The same record on every building, from the hallway to the report finance sends out.

100+buildings with a room-by-room record
6levels, health system down to the room
4teams reading the same record: facilities, finance, infection prevention, safety
1square footage number, including the one in the cost report

Space Utilization square footage from Ruya is used in MyMichigan Health’s Medicare cost report. Room counts and details are recorded per building, not estimated per campus.

What one room record does for your day

Stop being the only person who knows the building.

In the hallway

Pull up a room where you are standing and see what it is, which department runs it, and what is on record for it.

On the plan

Color the floor by department, room type, or air pressure when the question is about the whole floor and not one room.

Underneath

Every change is dated and attributable. When a number gets questioned, you can show where it came from.

Square footage you can put in a report.

Department totals

Square footage by department, off the current floor plan, without anyone measuring a printout.

One number

Facilities and finance read the same record, so the meeting is about the number instead of whose number it is.

Ready to send

MyMichigan Health’s team pulls theirs straight into the Medicare cost report.

Room conditions where the room is.

Pressure on the record

Positive, negative, or neutral, recorded on the room instead of remembered by a person.

Before the permit

ICRA level sits on the room, so the conversation before a project starts is a shorter one.

On the plan

Smoke compartment for every room, on the same current floor plan a JC surveyor will read.

What facility leaders say about their space data

Our finance team is very happy!
Gary B.Facilities Operations Manager, MyMichigan HealthAfter finance pulled Space Utilization square footage straight into their Medicare cost report.
Differentiating all of those spaces really tells the story — are we effectively utilizing the space, or do we have space that can’t even be used for clinical care?
Sarah T.Head of Analytics, MyMichigan HealthOn what the room record makes possible once every space is typed.
It’s a one-stop shop — work orders, floor plans, Revit. Instead of using four programs to do one thing, I can go to one spot.
Facilities & Space LeadLarge Ohio health system · 23 years in the roleOn keeping the room, the plan, and the work on the same record.

The room is where it all attaches

Building Data is the layer that makes a room findable. Everything else in Ruya hangs off it.

The room sits on the current floor plan, so the record and the plan never disagree. Assets are recorded in the room they were installed in, and the vendor who services them is tied to the building they work in. Work orders and open permits carry the room number, the department, and the ICRA level with them. And when a JC surveyor opens the audit binder, the room list they read is the one your team has been maintaining all year.

What is hospital facility management software?

Hospital facility management software is a system that organizes a hospital's physical information, including rooms, square footage, cost centers, occupancy types, AHU zones, and smoke compartments, by building rather than by user account. Facilities teams use it to answer room-level questions from staff, contractors, and surveyors with one verified record during renovations, inspections, and Joint Commission (JC), DNV, or CMS surveys. Ruya Building Data is a software and service solution: every attribute is tied to the room on the floor plan it describes, in one hub per building with unlimited seats.

Questions facility leaders ask

Room number and name, department, cost center, room type, square footage, air pressure relationship, ICRA level, smoke compartment, and AHU zone, plus who changed it last and when. If there is something else your team tracks on every room, bring it to the demo and we will show you where it goes.

From what you already have: your room list, your CAD files, and the current floor plan set. We load it against the plan so the record and the plan agree from day one. Where the two disagree, the room is flagged rather than guessed at.

Your team edits it directly. Room details change constantly, and waiting on someone else to make the change is exactly how a room list goes stale. The floor plan set is the one thing that does run through the Update Request Process, because the plan itself is reviewed and uploaded by your architect or life safety consultant.

MyMichigan Health’s finance team pulls department square footage from Ruya into their cost report. It comes off the same floor plan the facilities team is working from, so the two sides stop reconciling different spreadsheets.

The floor plan set updates through the Update Request Process, and the room record follows the new plan. Rooms that were added, split, or repurposed show up on the record instead of quietly falling behind the building.

For most hospital facilities teams it is the record they never had. If you already run a space system, the honest test is whether it reads the same floor plan your life safety set uses. Ruya does, because both live on the same building.

Bring the building nobody can answer questions about.

Pick the one where the room list and the floor plan stopped agreeing. We’ll load it into Ruya and walk the rooms with you on screen. Twenty minutes, with the founder, not a sales rep.

  • See your own rooms on your own floor plan
  • Ask the hard questions, pricing included
  • Leave with clear next steps, or a clean no
