Import FDM data into Higg FEM

Facilities who have 12 months of data in Facility Data Manager can import their monthly data into the yearly Higg FEM. Before you import, check out the FDM to FEM Data Import Checklist to ensure that all the data you want to import is present. As always we recommend reviewing imported data for accuracy and completeness before posting your FEM assessment.
