SelectIQ app for iPhone and iPad

Considering that workspace typically accounts for a significant amount of recurring operational costs, realizing significant cost reduction hinges upon optimising the use of the workplace through effective and efficient space scheduling and management.

This requirement has led to LMG developing an advanced space scheduling and allocation app, Select IQ, which can be integrated with all leading room and desk booking applications to optimize the workspace allocation process. Deploying Select IQ enhances the adoption of alternative workplace strategies and activity based working, reducing total cost of occupancy and delivering significant improvements in staff productivity.

At the heart of Select IQ, is a powerful resource capacity management engine that maximises the utilisation of key resources by automatically and scientifically determining the optimal workspace allocation for individual members of staff during the provisioning process. Select IQ achieves this by allocating the available workspace and resources that are a best fit for the user’s business unit, role and the tasks in hand.

Key advantages

- Real-time, quantitative BI on user and departmental demand for space by type, configuration and resources.
- LMG’s embedded WorkSpace IQ inbuilding GPS technology identifies no-shows, enabling seamless reallocation to the resource pool – improving utilization efficiency.
- Desk ‘hoggers’ – individuals who under utilize the allocated space – can be identified and offered alternative options.
- User satisfaction ratings provide space planners with real-time, qualitative BI by building, floor and space type, providing a continuous Post Occupancy Evaluation.
- Advanced analytics offer a detailed understanding of historical utilisation performance and current trends. Alerts can be initiated to identify seasonal variation or when and where occupancy thresholds are likely to be breached.
- Provides a vehicle for user feedback on the quality of the workspace’s environment conditions, enabling selective fine-tuning and hence the opportunity to reduce energy costs.

The provision of intra-building location services enables managers to quickly locate key members of staff (fire marshals, first aiders etc), lone workers and critical assets, greatly enhancing operational efficiency and improving general wellbeing.
