Corporate Architects and Facility Management

Hello,
I am new to my position here at Tufts University.  Currently, they are using Drawbase as a CAFM system but we're not sure that we are going to continue down that path.  Does anyone else out there use Drawbase or have any recommendations on a low-cost CAFM system to use with AutoCAD?  Also, we keep our drawings in both Revit and CAD.  I have CAD experience but I've always used it with the CAFM system, Tririga.  Is there a way to pull data directly from AutoCAD without using a CAFM system?  I didn't think that there was but I could be wrong.

Thanks for your help.
