Occupancy Sensors: Technology for Real-Time Views of Occupancy and Utilization



Make Educated, Cost Effective Decisions About Your Workspace

FM:Systems' IoT Sensors turn space challenges into opportunities with real-time objective data that allows you to identify, plan and deliver the ideal workplace. Sensor data reveals actionable insights on occupancy, utilization and the environment that can improve employee productivity and satisfaction while simultaneously optimizing your real estate portfolio and reducing energy costs. Learn more about the role of sensors in the workplace.


Environmental Monitoring

Our multi-function sensor not only captures utilization data but can also detect temperature, noise, light, air pressure and air quality, giving you the ability to better control energy consumption and improve the overall quality of the workplace environment.


Occupancy Detection System

Our automated and integrated workplace sensor platform offers real-time, objective data on occupancy and utilization with passive, infrared IoT sensors. Data visualizations in our Analytics dashboard yield insights into underused and under-performing spaces.


Network Independent

Sensor installation is quick and hassle-free. The system is installed during off-peak work hours to minimize workplace interruptions. Sensors and host hardware use radio frequencies that don't interfere with Wi-Fi or existing networks, so no IT involvement is required.

  • Determine what type of space (desks, conference rooms, huddle spaces) people need to be productive;

  • Control environment settings in a manner that improves the well-being of your employees ;

  • Respond to the needs of your mobile workforce with collaboration spaces and data-informed agile work strategies; and

  • Drive employee engagement with real-time displays of space availability via digital signage and mobile devices.|

Reap the Benefits of Alternative Workplace Strategies


Higher Employee to Desk Ratios


Most organizations still use a 1-to-1 employee to desk ratio. Achieving a higher ratio like 5-to-1 is not only possible, it can also save you millions in overhead costs. Offering intuitive tools and a real-time, live view of workspace availability will boost employee adoption and drive productivity.


Creating Workspaces Your Employees Want to Use


More than 40% of global companies are adopting alternative work programs to attract and retain talent. Sensors enable businesses to respond to the needs of a mobile workforce.  Objective utilization data informs decisions on adding more collaboration space or increasing your desk-sharing ratio.  Sensors allow you to make strategic decisions about workplace design and space allocation that will maximize your real estate investment and optimize employee performance.
