The Results
- Identification of under-utilised areas and floors. As an example, in one office building 4’500 sqm could be subleased, which yielded in substantial cost reduction and helped increase the space utilisation to the targeted 85%.
- Pro-active retention of 900 sqm that were temporarily not in use due to volatile projects. This area helps to easily and quickly react on future space requests from the business lines and to satisfy their needs.
- Automatically created management reports of the present and historical space utilisation.
- Pro-active identification of organisational changes and how these affect the space utilisation, e.g. identification when a project phase ends and the respective desks are no longer required.
