Using Occupancy Sensors for Strategic Office Planning

As technology continues to advance, so too does our ability to gather data. Occupancy sensors are a prime example of this. They are becoming increasingly popular in offices worldwide as a way to monitor space utilization and gather data on how people interact with their workspace. But, despite the abundance of data being collected, many people don't know how to use it effectively, particularly for strategic office planning.

The potential of using occupancy data for planning new office buildings, or transforming existing ones, is enormous. But, for many, the process of turning raw data into actionable insights can seem daunting. It's easy to become overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information being collected, not to mention the complexity of analyzing it effectively.

This is where we come in with The Office Senser. We help you make sense of your sensor data, to be able to use it to plan your new office or transform your existing office space. We believe that data should be accessible and straightforward, regardless of your technical background. Our approach is simple: convert data into knowledge, transform knowledge into insight, and turn insight into action.

First, we help you understand the data. What is it telling you about how your employees use your workspace? Are certain areas consistently overcrowded or underutilized? Which departments or teams are using which spaces the most? We work with you to answer these questions and more, providing you with the knowledge you need to make informed decisions.

Next, we help you identify key insights. What patterns emerge from the data? What can you learn about employee behavior and preferences? Armed with this information, you can start to make strategic decisions about how to optimize your workspace, from reconfiguring the layout to adjusting your office hours.

Finally, The Office Senser will guide you to take action and implement changes, from reconfiguring the office layout to introducing new policies that promote desired behaviors. The Office Senser generates detailed space utilization reports, highlighting the number of required rooms, the most sought-after space types, and necessary room sizes. This information empowers you to make data-driven decisions that optimize space and resource allocation.

Our core philosophy revolves around transforming data into knowledge, enabling you to contextualize it within strategic office planning. By doing so, we ensure that your space is tailored to meet your unique needs and objectives. Whether you aim to reduce costs, foster collaboration, or enhance employee well-being, The Office Senser can assist in achieving your goals.
