FSM Grid
Tier A · ListedField-service management platform from FSM Global, a Ducont Systems company with a Dubai office
FSM Grid is a field-service management platform from FSM Global Technologies, which says it is a subsidiary of Ducont Systems, an IT products and services provider based in the Middle East. It covers scheduling and dispatch, work orders, parts and inventory, quotations, contracts and SLAs, a customer portal, IoT integration and AI-driven predictive maintenance. FSM Global lists an office in Dubai Outsource City and says more than 75,000 field-service users rely on its software.
Pros
- + Scheduling, dispatch, work orders and parts inventory in one platform
- + IoT integration and AI-driven predictive maintenance modules
- + Dubai office and English/Arabic support in the Middle East, per FSM Global
- + Dedicated HVAC industry module and contracts/SLA tracking
Cons
- − No public prices; demo and quote only
- − Not an accounting system: invoicing relies on integration with accounting software
- − UAE VAT handling is not described on the vendor's site
- − Industry focus is telecom, manufacturing, medical equipment and HVAC rather than general building trades
United Arab Emirates note
FSM Global lists a Dubai office in Dubai Outsource City and says FSM Grid supports English and Arabic in the Middle East. Its site does not describe UAE VAT or FTA e-invoicing features, so confirm tax handling with the vendor or keep invoicing in your accounting system.
Horizon FMS (FIT)
Tier A · ListedDubai-built CAFM: assets, planned maintenance and work orders
Horizon FMS is a web-based computer-aided facility management (CAFM) system with mobile access from Frontline Information Technology LLC (FIT), a Dubai software company that says it has operated since 1992 and has an office in Al Karama. It covers assets, preventive maintenance, work orders and contracts for hard services such as HVAC, electrical and plumbing and soft services such as cleaning and security. FIT also sells the Horizon EBS ERP, Horizon HRMS and Horizon eProcure.
Pros
- + Dubai vendor with an office in Al Karama
- + Assets, preventive maintenance, work orders and contracts in one system
- + Covers hard and soft FM services, with mobile access
- + Same vendor sells Horizon EBS ERP, HRMS and eProcure
Cons
- − No public prices: quote only
- − FM-focused, not construction project management
- − VAT features are documented for Horizon EBS, not Horizon FMS
United Arab Emirates note
A locally built option for UAE facilities-management and MEP-maintenance firms that want CAFM from a Dubai vendor. FIT's VAT claims (FTA-format tax invoices in English and Arabic, VAT 201 returns) are made for its Horizon EBS ERP, and FIT is not on the Ministry of Finance list of accredited e-invoicing service providers (checked 30 September 2026).
