DeskQUERY™ is a groundbreaking workspace analysis and desk utilisation toolkit designed to give corporate FM and real estate managers the information they need to understand, rationalise and manage their use of space.
This seamless, low-intervention and unobtrusive software solution accurately monitors utilisation of desks, meeting rooms and other facilities in real time, linking that usage to individual users.
Because it operates on existing infrastructures, DeskQUERY™ offers significant advantages over hardware-based solution like desk sensors, as well as powerful additional functionality designed to empower workspace users and drive operational efficiency.

Easy and rapid deployment
Because it works on a company’s existing IT infrastructure, DeskQUERY™ can be equally easily deployed across existing and new estate alike, with a typical roll-out taking just two weeks and requiring no expensive or intrusive desk sensor or other hardware installation.
Unrivalled accuracy and granularity
Real-time desk and space analysis, linked to individual users, can be analysed over hours, days or even years and communicated through easy-to-interpret graphical interfaces and bespoke reports.
Configurable and scalable
Highly configurable and scalable, DeskQUERY™ has been deployed in organisations from medium 1,000+ headcount to global portfolios with 80,000+ employees. It can be a standalone installation or part of an integrated workplace management system (IWMS).
A truly intelligent building strategy demands the intelligent use of space, something that becomes all the more obvious when you realise that occupancy levels in the average office are typically found to be 60 percent or less.
A lack of real-time information has always made optimisation difficult, and modern working practices – including hot desking, virtual meetings, off-site working, mobile connections, flexible teams and fluid project methodologies – are only adding to the challenge.
DeskQUERY™ has been specifically designed to meet those challenges, being suitable for use in both traditional fixed desk and hot-desking office environments and with the ability to provide information on virtual, remote and home based users.
The result is a unique desk utilisation and space analysis solution which helps the manager to optimise use of existing work areas, floors or buildings; plan future estate requirements; or analyse desk utilization by department for optimised usage and accurate cost allocation.

DeskQUERY™ was praised as ‘fantastic’ at the British Institute of Facilities Management (BIFM) Awards, with the judges hailing it as an “an easy to use, affordable and innovative software solution… a completely new approach to real estate optimisation and space management.”
Since DeskQUERY™ was launched to wide acclaim in 2012, it has quickly proved its worth with corporate and public sector organisations able for the first time to effectively rationalise their use of existing space, rule out future expansion plans or simply close surplus offices.
The results have been annualised savings of millions of pounds across real estate, security, IT, energy and other streams.
