Problem
Strategic space planners in college and corporate campuses often lack comprehensive, real-time data on space utilization, leading to inefficient resource allocation and increased operational costs. Traditional methods like manual surveys and clicker studies are time-consuming, provide only a snapshot in time, and lack the scalability needed for large, multi-building environments. This absence of continuous, accurate data hinders informed decision-making regarding room reservations, leasing needs, and maintenance schedules.
Solution
Lambent provides a space optimization software solution that leverages ceiling sensors and existing data sources like Wi-Fi, cameras, and badge systems to deliver anonymous, continuous insights into space utilization trends. The platform offers an intuitive user interface that displays real-time and historical reports on space occupancy, enabling strategic space planners to validate room usage, meet utilization KPIs, and determine future leasing requirements. By providing clear visuals and continuous reporting, Lambent empowers users to answer critical questions, resolve space disputes with data-driven evidence, and optimize space allocation across their facilities. The software integrates with room booking technology to increase office and meeting room use.
