Streamline moves, adds, and changes
Move management may not seem like a critical
component of reducing or freezing the
footprint, but when it isn't organized, agencies
waste usable square footage. And right now,
the federal government is navigating a
significantly greater volume of moves, adds,
and changes (MAC) requests as agencies close
locations and employees return to office or
leave their posts.
As a comprehensive space management
solution, Tango space lets agencies handle
MAC requests from the same tool they use for
space planning and occupancy analytics,
providing several capabilities that help you use
your space more effectively. For starters, it
serves as a hub with detailed records of your
assigned and unassigned space and assets,
making it easy to see what's available to
repurpose. In the near future, Tango will even
use AI to recommend specific moves based on
the requests and available space within your
system. So if a request comes in to move a
bbbb
team to five open workstations in close
proximity, the system can identify workstations
that meet the request's parameters and
suggest them to you.
Tango also eases the burden MAC requests
place on your space planning team by
effectively automating and crowdsourcing the
parts of the process that other roles can fulfill,
such as securing approvals from management,
scheduling related tasks, moving the request
through your agency's workflow, and updating
the system after a move is completed. With
role-based access, you can control who has
visibility into the MAC process and what
actions they can take, so that stakeholders can
support but not interfere with space planning.
Importantly, Tango also lets you visualize
upcoming moves, so no one will accidentally
assign the same space to multiple people in the
system. All of this serves to ensure that moves
stay on track, and your agency maximizes
space utilization.

Test scenarios to find optimal configurations
It takes more than a good idea to optimize your
agency's office space. Agencies that want to
maximize their ability to freeze or reduce the
footprint need to test a wide range of
scenarios to find the best configurations.
Tango Space's scenario planning capabilities let
agencies test as many office configurations as
they need to, and even automatically generates
configurations that work within your
parameters and fit your desired outcomes—so
you can choose the options that are truly the
best, not just the best someone could think of.
While your team may thoughtfully develop a
handful of configurations to compare, Tango
can test every possibility, then show you the
options that yield the best results.
