New data from worktech leader shows spike in workspace bookings, visitors, and maintenance requests; highlights points of tension emerging in today’s workplaces
ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Eptura, the global worktech leader, today unveiled the first edition of its quarterly Workplace Index Report documenting macro trends across workspaces around the globe using proprietary data. Key findings in the report reveal a global wave of workplace returns led by the Asia-Pacific market, including a worldwide 495% increase in collaborative room bookings since January 2022, 76% increase in room booking check-in rate, 35% increase in visitor check-ins, and 3% increase in site inspections.
“Data from Eptura’s Workplace Index Report demonstrates that space planning, workplace experience, visitor management, and asset maintenance are all inextricably linked,” said Brandon Holden, CEO of Eptura. “By taking a comprehensive look at the different facets of the modern working arrangement, businesses can gain a deeper understanding of how the world at work is responding to the needs of their workforce and make more informed decisions about the future of their assets.”
The report draws on a representative sample of more than 6,000 organizations within Eptura’s global customer base to showcase emerging patterns in how the physical workspace operates at every level, from individual assets to office floorplans to entire buildings. Data from 2022 serves as a benchmark against which the report compares insights from the first quarter of 2023.
Additionally, the report explores four preeminent tensions organizations are navigating in today’s workplaces: freedom vs. connection; flexibility vs. certainty; value add vs. cost center; and CO2 target vs. costs:
Freedom vs. Connection
This theme from the report highlights the tension between an individual employee’s desire to work how they want and the need for human connection with other employees within a business.
Flexibility vs. Certainty
The second main theme from the report highlights the tension between the desire to work in a fluid manner and the need for predictability within a business. While flexible work policies are broadly welcomed, they can create enormous friction for facility management and corporate real estate teams who need to plan around workspace demand that changes daily.
Value Add vs. Cost Center
From a financial perspective, this theme explores the tension between the pressure to reconfigure, remodel, and renovate workspaces to create attractive modern workplaces and the need to rationalize costs in a business, as companies are under twin pressures to deliver effective workplaces from both an employee experience and operational point of view.
CO2 Targets vs. Cost
Lastly, this theme from the report highlights the tension between meeting the requirements set by environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) standards and the need to optimize costs.
