The iotspot system as a solution for the offices of the future

The arrival of new technologies has allowed for a transformation of the existing way of working as well as the traditional concept of office space. The global COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated this change, as it has shown that many people can work from home and only occasionally use their workplace. Thus, office spaces do not need to have such a large capacity, and individual desks or computers can be shared by multiple employees. For better orientation and reservation of workspaces, iotspot serves as an intelligent workplace management system from the Next Generation Office series.

Working from home is no longer unusual today. Many companies have responded to this trend by changing working conditions and adapting their office space solutions in the form of shared workspaces. Unused work area, or unoccupied workspaces, represent additional operating costs for employers. But how can one keep track of the current occupancy of the workplace? One possible tool is the intelligent iotspot platform, which allows for quick and easy searching for available workspaces, making reservations, and providing management with detailed data and analyses useful for optimizing costs.

BACHMANN, the company offering the iotspot platform, continuously monitors current trends and provides intelligent systems designed for the new generation of offices. The solutions from this company are intuitive, thus user-friendly, flexible, and impress not only with high functionality but also modern design.

Workspace Reservation

The option to choose a workspace is appreciated not only by facility managers, HR managers, and executives but also by employees themselves. In the mobile application, which is available for free on the App Store or Google Play, one simply needs to register using their company email and view available workspaces before heading to work – whether for the entire day or for a specific time period. Thanks to the integrated search function, it is also possible to display colleagues or project partners and secure a workspace near them. In the overall overview, all workspaces are displayed with color coding according to their current occupancy status. Employees can immediately see whether free desks are still available.

Everything clearly at a glance

The configuration application is easy to control. The simplicity of integrating the iotspot solution is one of its key advantages for those responsible for office complexes. Through detailed and always available evaluations, facility management, HR managers, or executives have access to analyses on workspace utilization, providing valuable insights for cost optimization. However, it is not just desks that can be monitored in the application. Sensors can be connected to the devices, allowing users to monitor the capacity and usage of meeting rooms. Additional sensors measure, among other things, temperature and CO₂ concentration, thus ensuring a better indoor climate throughout the office complex in the long term. The entire system fully complies with strict personal data protection requirements.

A tool for every requirement

BACHMANN's system consolidates all the advantages of flexible work, benefiting both employees and employers even during the pandemic. Workspace operators can reduce the capacity of work desks in real-time using the configuration application and ensure adequate distance among colleagues.
