FRAMINGHAM, Massachusetts—June 30, 2009—PeopleCube, provider of intelligent workplace, resource, and energy management technology, today announced that it is extending its ongoing webinar series with the addition of three programs that will run throughout the month of July. All of the webinars focus on effectively utilizing real estate and minimizing associated costs. They are free of charge.
“Given the state of the economy—and recognizing that real estate is the second-largest cost (after labor) for most organizations—it’s more important than ever for companies to gain an accurate view of current and future real-estate needs, so that they can avoid unnecessary expenditures,” said Rick Boyink, vice president of North America for PeopleCube. “Our complimentary webinars give facility managers and real-estate executives insight into determining how their space and assets are being used now and enable them to predict future needs, potentially saving thousands—even millions—of dollars in direct operating costs within their real-estate portfolio.”
The three new webinars are “Leveraging Alternative Workspace Strategies to Reduce Costs,” “How to Capture Actual Use of Space,” and “Workplace Business Intelligence: Better Real-Estate Management Begins with Better Real-Estate Measurement.” Sessions are available throughout the month, and attendees may select the dates they prefer when registering at PeopleCube’s Resource Center, http://www.peoplecube.com/resource-center-overview.htm. Visitors to the Resource Center will also find complimentary white papers, case studies, and on-demand workshops.
Measuring, Managing, Predicting, and Saving on Real Estate
Descriptions of the three new webinars are as follows.
“Leveraging Alternative Workspace Strategies to Reduce Costs”—Participants will learn how to reduce real-estate costs using alternative workspace (office hoteling) software. Examples will be given of customers who are using resource scheduling software to reduce real-estate overhead, improve utilization of shared workspace, lessen energy consumption and costs, and implement or support green initiatives. The webinar will also describe how customers can promote a telecommuting environment and accommodate a mobile workforce, two examples of flexible work programs that increase employee satisfaction and enhance an organization’s ability to acquire and retain talent.
“How to Capture Actual Use of Space”—Designed for facility management and real-estate mangers and executives, this webinar will present different ways that organizations can capture actual usage of space and report on the information that is captured. Determining actual usage of space enables companies to make meaningful real-estate decisions that can lead to significant cost savings.
“Workplace Business Intelligence: Better Real-Estate Management Begins with Better Real-Estate Measurement”—Real estate is typically the second largest expense after labor, and yet it is often one of the most overlooked assets within an organization’s portfolio. Knowing how real-estate space and related assets are being used today—and how they will be used tomorrow—can save organizations thousands, even millions, of dollars. This session will present how workplace business intelligence (BI) can be leveraged by organizations to maximize real-estate space and asset utilization.
