Technology in the smart office

Do you take an innovative approach to your office space? Choose a smart office and use technology to make the workplaces more efficient and effective. From office occupancy to climate control, technology can offer a helping hand.

Smart lockers: safe and efficient

Smart lockers are an indispensable addition to any hybrid office or shared workspace. Use your smartphone or a badge to easily open and close the lockers and eliminate the hassle associated with traditional keys or numerical codes. They can be seamlessly connected to your IT network, making it possible to assign and release them quickly.

Thanks to the technology, you can manage your storage space dynamically, securely, and in real time: from personal belongings to the delivery of packages and the protection of company assets.

Smart use of data: occupancy rate and reservation

Another application is the use of sensors to improve the working environment and experience. Employees can easily reserve a workplace or meeting room digitally. Uncertainties such as availability can be removed, while the information is visible and accessible to everyone.

As a facility manager, you can respond to the information that the sensors register. This can help with preventing double bookings, no-shows, and empty meeting rooms. Or you can gain deeper insights. Are the rooms being used in the way they are intended? Where are the hotspots? How many desks do you actually need? And much more.

Data is the key to optimising your office space and improving the work experience. Knowledge is power.

Smart climate control and lighting

A comfortable working environment contributes to employee productivity and well-being. Smart climate control and lighting systems adapt to your users’ needs automatically. They can be used to regulate temperature, light levels, and ventilation based on the presence or preferences of your employees.

Making intelligent use of these and other technological tools can help you make more efficient use of your company building and working environment. The future of workplaces is smart and adaptive.
