Optimizing real estate
Validate your real estate decisions and inspire change
Optimizing your real estate requires bringing all the stakeholders to agree to change. Irrefutable space usage data can be instrumental in validating your real estate strategy and inspiring workplace changes. Your organization turns to you deliver spaces that not only provide the best environment for its users, but is also cost-effective and sustainable.
How you can empower your real estate
- Understand space usage across your portfolio
- Use occupancy data to speed up organisational decisions
- Use data to support mergers, acquisitions and disposals
- Ensure smooth implementation of office moves, adds and changes
- Reduce space wastage and reduce your carbon footprint
- Benchmark your occupancy costs
Your offices are spread across a wide geography and understanding their usage accurately can be challenging. Walkthroughs and notepads don’t quite cut it. Sensor-based data can give you real-time, continuous and accurate picture of actual space use across your portfolio.
Understanding usage
Global portfolio
Real-time
Convincing business users of their actual space needs can be a challenging task. People are possessive about their space; in some cases being measured as a privilege. Anonymous and irrefutable data can help take the emotion out of decision making. Analytics and insights can help you accelerate decision making.
Accelerate decisions
Organizational change
Data analytics
Every large business goes through mergers, acquisitions and disposals. Office space is a key resource that could be a catalyst for a successful change. Analytics from space usage can provide insights to assist with the change. Digital signage helps create a common culture of space usage when two organizations come together.

Office moves can be a stressful period for many of us. Assisting staff with data at their fingertips can assure them what to expect during the change and empower them to participate in the new setting. Apps, signage, space planning tools can now work in conjunction to help achieve this outcome.

Space planning
Every space carries a maintenance overhead. Whether Heating, ventilation and air conditioning, maintenance or cleaning. Elevator miles, waste management or materials distribution. Costs are both evident and hidden. Remove these costs for spaces that are not in use. Measuring usage can deliver benefits beyond what meets the eye.
