Workspace Snap Assessment Tool

A rapid workplace assessment tool for pre- and post-occupancy evaluations that offers a standardised snapshot of space type effectiveness. A tool that performs a quick assessment of the physical environment, furniture, and supporting technology in a workplace offering a fast and efficient evaluation process for quickly identifying potential areas of improvement in the workspace layout, infrastructure and protocols.

Through a largely automated process utilising AI we collect and process data from 4 sources:

site assessment

We gather information from four main sources to compile our data. Firstly, our team of expert assessors conduct on-site assessments of workplaces and workstyles. These assessments include basic ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) criteria. Secondly, we collect data on space-type time utilization from sensor data. This allows us to analyze how different spaces are being used over time. Thirdly, we gather insights from user surveys that specifically target the area in question. This provides us with valuable feedback and opinions from those who directly interact with the space. Lastly, we conduct interviews in various forms, with the choice of four different methods. These interviews offer further qualitative information and perspectives. Depending on the customization requirements of our clients, we may add additional data sets to ensure we deliver tailored solutions.

  • Ideal for pre- and post-occupancy evaluation for small-scale interventions and reconfigurations, the basic report offers the following:

    1. Overview of project, drivers and goals

    2. Highlighted findings from four data sources

    3. Opportunity findings assessment

    4. Recommendations for future short and medium-term actions in terms of work-settings, technology and behavioural protocols.

BENEFITS

Done in a Snap: Quick, non-disruptive, cost-effective

Benefits for designers: Quickly vaslidate design options with concrete numbers to determine the ideal number of desks, meeting rooms and open settings. Break a decision-making impasse to move on to designing quicker. Demonstrate how the right design choices were made post-occupancy.

Benefits for furniture manufacturers and dealers: Collect and share data on how best to use the product so that ultimately it gets great reviews and people want to recommend it and buy more, as well as finding new use settings

Benefits for project managers: Quickly determine whether an area needs to be in the scope of a general overhaul or if spot changes could be sufficient. Justify purchasing decision making

Benefits for facilities managers: Low-cost way to gain data to justify funding requests for space changes, maintenance/security/cleaning regimens, utilisation recommendations.

Organisations are struggling to get staff back in the office and making the most out of that opportunity to be together. Most workplaces are designed without extensive research, and even in this post-COVID hybrid working world, many companies do not invest in gathering workplace usage and experience data before introducing new policies and furniture due to time and cost constraints. Alternatively, they introduce new solutions without following up to get an objective read of their success.

Not so with Snap. Snap's automated report generation reduces time and cost and increases consistency in workplace experience.
