The role of the office is changing

Traditionally, offices were places where workers gathered in one place to efficiently carry out and manage their work. However, in recent years, its role has changed to one that creates innovation while realizing the management vision, increasing employee engagement and well-being, and promoting team communication. In the background, there are issues such as rapid changes in social conditions and business environments, work styles, increasing diversity, and securing human resources due to population changes. Offices that are highly adaptable to these changes will need human capital management. It is an important element of

Issues in office renewal

On the other hand, if you seek the optimal solution for ``work style'' and “Work Environment” according to the situation and purpose, office renewal will become a shorter cycle and the difficulty of office management will increase. Therefore, our service uses data to capture "work style" and “Work Environment”, monitors the relationship between them, and detects and predicts mismatches at an early stage. By combining the results of this analysis with our office design knowledge, we support the continuous updating of offices, making it possible to construct and operate agile offices that are always suited to the situation.

Service features

A feature of our service is that we increase the probability of success after office renovations are completed, and maximize the effectiveness after office renovations are completed. The former captures office usage data and reflects it in layout design and operational rule formulation. The latter continuously collects data again, proposes layout adjustments and reviews of operational rules, and contributes to change management.

Data acquisition methods and types, analysis techniques

Regarding office data, based on our proprietary platform "ITOKI OFFICE A/BI PLATFORM" for collecting, integrating, and utilizing data, we collect space operation data, organizational survey data, etc. , layout data, and other index data that customers have independently.

Data is collected using the "Workers Trail" application that uses location information from beacons to visualize "workers" and Itoki's proprietary cloud-based organizational survey to assess the performance and condition of individuals and organizations. We mainly use two types of "Performance Trail" that can visualize. The latter service is based on the theory and effect model compiled in 2015 by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, experts, and researchers.

There are 4 types of acquired data

Four types of data are integrated into the analysis tool Office Data Map

Analysis example

For example, if you want to increase employee engagement before renovating your office, you can conduct a ``space usage trend analysis'' of the highly engaged employees in your current office. We identify spaces that have a positive impact on these metrics and propose appropriate areas that can be used by a large number of people and layouts that are easily accessible. In addition, if there is an issue where a specific group of people monopolize single-person booths or web conference booths after office renovations, we will conduct a "specific user occupancy rate analysis" and check in detail the spaces that are in an undesirable state for operation. , we can propose a review of operational rules regarding space reservations and usage hours.

Outlook

The various services developed based on the "ITOKI OFFICE A/BI PLATFORM" for collecting, integrating, and utilizing our office data will be collectively referred to as "ITOKI OFFICE A/BI SERVECE," and will now include "Data Trekking." We plan to deploy multiple services and applications. We will continue to improve the quality of office construction and operation and support the promotion of our customers' human capital management.
