Create a workplace that works with space utilization metrics
manage what you measure
Companies are increasingly interested in measuring the ROI of their workplaces. They seek efficiency in harmony with employee well-being.
They are prepared to spend on the right things — but how can they know what those right things are? With data.
Today’s corporate real estate teams are tapping into robust space utilization metrics and tools that can support workflows, reservations and resourcing, and inform decisions that drive productivity and preserve culture.
Measuring occupancy trends is not enough
Occupancy sensors have one job: they count people in a defined space. This single metric tells us nothing about the intentions, interests or needs of employees, such as how they got there, where they went next, or how often they returned.
By contrast, the InnerSpace spatial location platform gives your the total experience. It draws upon multiple metrics to create a rich data set that enables behavioral analysis from patterns of movement measured over time.
The breadth and depth of InnerSpace data is a game-changer for real estate teams and workplace managers seeking to improve space utilization and employee satisfaction.
Remove the guesswork from your office space planning
The InnerSpace analytics and space utilization platform makes it easy to measure the true performance of your office space. Learn how people are actually using the available square footage and then use these insights to inform the design and ongoing operation of the workplace.
With effective space utilization analysis, you can optimize your total square footage. Reduce wasted space by allocating more space for teams that need it and less space for those that don't.
Understanding how best to resource for flexible working environments while ensuring your real estate budget can accommodate future growth is key.
From standard questions to sophisticated insights
Our clients in corporate real estate — facilities managers, occupancy planners — even HR teams, are often asked to justify or rationalize decisions about a particular space.
But questions that seem easy are often impossible to answer - and they just lead to more questions.
The InnerSpace solution is quick to deploy, more accurate than other data collection methods, and can aggregate multiple inputs for deeper, more meaningful information.
By exploring the science beyond occupancy sensors, office managers can...
Better serve office employees
Improve space for evolving needs
Objectively inform real estate leasing decisions
Develop meaningful hybrid workplace policies
Don’t miss out on space utilization metrics that can help you determine inefficiencies, optimize available footprint and enable flexible work environments. Ditch the occupancy sensors for a data solution in step with the pace of change.

Popular pathways
Our people movement and pathways metrics present a dynamic picture of continuous space and resource usage, and demonstrate how spaces are used in combination rather than isolation. For example, how a meeting room location helps to populate a lunchroom.

Heat maps
InnerSpace Analytics Portal heats maps allow filtering by floor, building level, and employee groups to see a detailed story of utilization. Does this team spend more time collaborating together in meeting rooms than they do at their assigned seats? How often do the travel to visit another team on a different floor? Would it be more productive to bring those two teams together in a layout containing more collaboration space?
