Measuring the Office: The Metrics That Matter

Modern workplaces are under increasing pressure to make better use of space, yet many leaders still struggle to answer simple questions about how offices are actually used. Some organisations operate with little or no data. Others rely on booking systems, while some are beginning to incorporate sensor or badge data, often without a clear understanding of which occupancy and usage metrics to track or how to use the data to support better decisions.

This session explores how occupancy analytics helps leaders understand utilisation patterns, optimise space, forecast demand, and support hybrid work strategies. Whether starting with limited visibility or building on existing data, the goal is not simply to generate more data, but to ensure the right data is captured and used to make the decisions that matter about office design, real estate portfolios, and workplace experience.
