- Thoughts on Signs on Workspace -
Coworking space is a flexible solution to adopt with modern workstyle. Private office, desk hotelling, hot desk.
People coming and going days and nights, how can a coworking space provider offer a place that user can call their own temporarily? Of course, put a sticker on the desk or paste a paper on the door, or simply tell them: ”your desk reserved is on the window side, the second desk starts from the left’
These ways might be economical in the short term, but in long term, it is a tremendous waste of resources (Either is labor or material)
Paper Consuming
Everything has to be presented on a paper, if the room schedule change frequently, the notes will be messy. Tremendous amount of labor are wasted on these daily chore: writing, finding, pasting and replacing.
Manual Labor Waste
It requires manpower to maintain, and facility staff can't put their energy into more productive, such as how to better explore and meet the needs of users. We should make space and bring value to people, not vice versa.
Bad Impression
Outdated and old fashion of room and desk arrangement. Users also need to communicate with the facility staff to find a position to work. After all, they just want a proper place to work!!!
How about adopting digital signage? such as with iPad or Android Tablet, combining with a 3rd party room reserving software?
Switching from the old way of ‘pasting papers on the wall’ to use digital signs in order to communicate messages and provide visitors and tenants with helpful information. That’s a good idea, but that means:
– They have to train (additional cost) their staffs on how to use another room reserving system.
– Frequently Charge the digital signs from time to time, which means more labor to maintain.
– The complex electricity deployment might be another headache.

- Case Study -
Simon is the facility manager in a co-working space. He want a digital sign solution that the reservation information of the hot desk/private office/meeting room can be displayed, so as to improve the efficiency and utilization as well as the sense of belonging of the whole workspace.
The status quo is:
– Desk hotelling: There is no signs on the desk to show the reserver’s information and for how long he/she will book this desk
– Private office and Huddle space: Staffs have to paste a paper on the door stating the booking information.
– Conference room: Due to the reason that the conference rooms were booked in a quite frequent way, staff have to replace the paper with the room schedule over and over again, not eco-friendly and a waste on the human resources.
So use it in conjunction with their Microsoft Office 365 account. Their requirements are:
– Sync with existing calendar system: Work with their existing Office 365 account, no additional booking software is required.
– Hassle-free installation: Can be pasted on the desk/glass wall, just like a sticky note. Avoiding compromising the beauty of the office.
– No need of complex electricity layout: There is no power supply around the wall, thus the battery shall last long.
– User-friendly: No more new learning curve to employees. Simon does not want to train his colleagues again on how to book a meeting room.
