    Premise occupancy management: automize and save

    The role of the physical office in the professional world has been dramatically altered in just a few short years. Building managers balancing employee well-being and operating cost pressures are looking for new tools to ensure efficient operations of workspaces with fluctuating occupancy rates. Automated solutions that can help contain costs for non-utilized areas while also keeping employees informed of available workspaces in real-time will play an important role in the new generation of Smart Buildings.  

     

    Challenge

    New forms of officing have replaced the nine to five at physical office buildings, presenting employers and property owners with a unique and still evolving set of challenges that risk undermining cost efficiency plans. The main issues:

    • Determining building occupancy rates in real-time
    • Using historical data for future planning
    • Ensuring premise density does not pose a risk to the well-being of employees
    • Optimizing spatial resources to keep operating costs low

    Capturing reliable, objective data on employee movement empowers all groups to adjust expectations and commitments more cost-effectively.


    Solution

    The dynamism of the modern physical workspace demands more sophisticated, automated solutions that make streamlining premise management a snap. With existing market solutions, employers, property owners, and facility managers can:

    • Increase efficiency by indicating available meeting rooms and workspaces
    • Provide employees with real-time occupancy levels for various in-office
      facilities and workspaces
    • Direct in-office staff to different parts of the office infrastructure as occupancy
      levels change


    Benefits

    Sometimes known as thresholding, the practice of managing the occupancy is now a top priority for many parties. In addition to respecting regulations, premise occupancy management also helps:

    • Better understanding of passenger demographics 
    • Lowering energy costs by “quieting” areas where staff is not present
    • Adjusting support staff (janitorial, maintenance etc.) to better match the
      needs of the actual space being utilized
    • Empowering employees to work in a fluid in-office setting more contoured to
      support productivity
    • Reducing real estate expenses based on a more accurate understanding of
      physical space needs
