Raise unveils Workplace Analytics

Manhattan, NY Raise unveiled Workplace Analytics, the latest addition to its WorkplaceOS platform. Spurred by the shift to hybrid working models and the coinciding heightened urgency for real-time data and visibility into employee trends, Workplace Analytics leverages HRIS and badge data to deliver the full spectrum of meaningful workplace metrics on space usage, cost, and performance to yield the most optimal decision-making surrounding real estate portfolio strategies.

The challenges faced by real estate and workplace leaders in today’s dynamic work environments are met head-on by Workplace Analytics. This innovative solution eliminates the guesswork that often plagues real estate strategies, offering actionable office space insights to clients across all industries. Whether your company is office-centric, remote-first, or follows a hybrid model, Workplace Analytics allows you to understand your office engagement and tailor strategies to meet your goals.

“In today’s hybrid working world, real estate and workplace leaders are facing the challenge of tracking and analyzing office use and employee data manually, and sifting through multiple sources to draw out-of-date conclusions can be a daunting task,” said Justin Bedecarre, co-founder and CEO of Raise. “Workplace Analytics equips stakeholders with access to those insights in a singular dashboard, allowing clients to market data-driven office investment decisions in real time.”

Real-Time Data to Solve Today’s Workplace Challenges
Workplace Analytics has been tested and integrated by several of the firm’s existing clients and industry pioneers, including Samsara, which has allowed the cloud-based technology firm to accurately refine its approaches to office engagement based on the actionable, real-time intelligence delivered through the interface.

“We see Workplace Analytics by Raise as a tool delivering us real-time occupancy and utilization insights that help us shape our strategies for how employees engage with the office,” said Sandra Ladao, vice president of real estate, workplace and physical security at Samsara. “Our team will save so much time leveraging Workplace Analytics as opposed to trying to reproduce these dashboards every week ourselves, so we can devote more time to putting the data we get from Workplace Analytics into action.”

Raise’s WorkplaceOS is an all-encompassing platform, allowing decision-makers the ability to conceptualize and manage the full lifecycle of their real estate portfolio and data, including the execution of active leasing searches, portfolio management operations and workplace occupancy tracking. Managing all elements via a single dashboard not only informs the most data-driven business decisions to maximize company ROI, it simultaneously saves copious amounts of employee time.

Featuring Workplace Analytics
Workplace Analytics marks the culmination of WorkplaceOS into a comprehensive suite of solutions that streamline workplace processes and optimize portfolio performance, rounding out how real estate professionals adapt their office strategies to employee behaviors. Eradicating the guesswork from real estate strategies to provide immediate insights into the dynamics of your spaces, Workplace Analytics allows users to gain an understanding of the totality of office utilization down to location, department, and commuter, all in real-time.
