Room and workspace utilisation
See how offices, classrooms and labs are really used, so you get the most from costly space. Space is one of the largest costs, yet most organisations don’t know how much of it is used.
Why it matters.
Space is one of the largest costs, yet most organisations don’t know how much of it is used. Rooms are booked but sit empty, and decisions rest on bookings, not actual use.
What it detects and measures
- Whether each room or workspace is in use, and for how long
- How many people use each space
- Booked use compared with actual use, where booking data is available
- Whether scheduled lectures, classes or lab sessions actually happen
- Offices and desks that are rarely used
Typical applications
Set up in four steps.
Self-service, in the browser, on the cameras you already own.
- 01Connect
Uses the cameras already covering rooms, labs or shared spaces. No new hardware.
- 02Set the rule
Mark each room or workspace, and link the booking or timetable system if available.
- 03Measure
Counts the people in each space and compares actual use with bookings, without identifying anyone.
- 04Act
When a booked room stays empty, the facilities team is notified.
What your team gets.
Alerts reach the person who can act, with the time, place and frame. Every event is kept for reporting.
For operations
- Real use of every room, not just bookings
- Empty bookings found and released
For the business
- Better use of existing space before building or leasing more
- Evidence for shared workspace and attendance policies
- Timetabling and space allocation based on real use
- Lower property, cleaning and energy costs from unused space
Often measured on the same cameras.
Together they show how a whole campus or building is really used.
Occupancy and density
Know how full every space is as it fills, so you can keep people safe, comfortable and moving.
