Floor Plan 2.0: Discovering Your Future Office
8
The return to work is a time to test your assumptions, not
make them. Throughout the pandemic, businesses have
experimented with a range of sensors, beacons and other
tech solutions that enable them to monitor how space is
being used in real-time.
By connecting these systems to an IWMS solution like Tango,
you can create heat maps that show how your entire office
space gets used, including which pathways, rooms and doors
have the most traffic throughout the day—and at what
times and on what days they see the most use. The more
utilization-related data you can collect, the more informed
decisions you can make about the best use of space.
Note: This greater visibility into your office space has nothing
to do with surveillance and everything to do with space
optimization. But it may not feel that way to employees.
When they suddenly start seeing cameras and sensors
popping up and learn that you're "tracking" them, the
perceived lack of privacy could negatively impact their desire
to be in the building and hurt their overall wellness. So if you
implement these solutions, it will be important to clearly
distinguish between surveillance and optimization and be
transparent about what you're actually monitoring.
