As part of their search for the best balance between work models, companies are looking more closely at occupancy and utilization. These are powerful metrics, and as corporate real estate (CRE) consultants, we know there\u2019s a variety of reasons companies should be focused on them. For many organizations, it\u2019s still early days in the process, but we\u2019re encouraged by the increasing interest and growing understanding that they need to see these metrics not in isolation but within a larger context.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Working definitions of occupancy and utilization data<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Although we often hear people using \u201coccupancy\u201d and \u201cutilization\u201d interchangeably\u2014and it\u2019s something we sometimes do ourselves\u2014there are important differences between these two terms. On the most basic level, occupancy is how many people a space is designed for or used by, while utilization is how people use that space at a specific time or within a timeframe.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Looking at them more closely, though, there are three facets to the two metrics, each connected to a specific way of capturing data. While bookings reveal what should happen, those numbers only reflect intention. To see what really happened, you need to look at badge data, which tells you how many people showed up. That can only tell you so much, though. To understand where people went and what they did, you need sensor data.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Each of these aspects shows a different side of what\u2019s happening in your spaces. For a more complete picture, you need to also look at employee feedback and experience, which includes understanding how the space works for the activity it was designed for as well as who uses it.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The rise of occupancy and utilization as key metrics<\/span><\/h3>\n

Not only are occupancy and utilization separate \u2013 but related \u2013 metrics; we\u2019re now beginning to see them evolve. Understanding these distinctions is crucial in the post-2020 work environment in which these indicators are now moving targets, with weekly, monthly, and seasonal variations. These fluctuations have made understanding occupancy and utilization much more important.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We saw this new way of thinking about the metrics captured in two separate interactions in the same week this month. One organization we\u2019re working with said their leadership never used to worry about occupancy, while another shared that occupancy and utilization were now key reportable metrics across many of their teams. These examples represent a trend we\u2019re seeing with wide applicability across industries.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another important shift we\u2019re seeing is senior leadership now asking to see these numbers monthly or even every other week. It\u2019s a trend captured in an insight a facility management provider once shared with us: \u201cWe used to have to convince leadership this software existed. Now they\u2019re coming to us and saying, \u2018We need help with this.\u2019\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Companies want to leverage the metrics, but for different goals<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Industry-wide, we\u2019re seeing businesses embrace one of two approaches. Either they\u2019re looking at employee behavior so they can tailor facility operations to match demand, or they\u2019re using the metrics as part of larger campaigns designed to directly influence when and how often employees are in the office.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, a company that\u2019s decided on or defaulted to an employee-led hybrid model may want to understand peaks and troughs so it can respond by adjusting available space to match organic demand. If Fridays usually have less traffic, they might open only a few floors. On Wednesday, when it\u2019s busier, they may allow employees access to spaces throughout the facility. We\u2019re also seeing companies using data to find opportunities to repurpose or sublet spaces on low-occupancy days.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Other companies are taking a different approach, using occupancy and utilization as proxy metrics to track the results of other efforts. There are many possible reasons organizations want people back at their office desks. The CEO might feel employees need more oversight from their managers. Or the company might be more interested in changing when their hybrid employees are in the office. This may mean they\u2019re not worried if the office is empty Mondays and Fridays. Instead, they\u2019re concerned that so many people are showing up on Wednesdays it\u2019s degrading the overall office experience. Tracking occupancy can help them understand how effectively their policies flatten the midweek mountain.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our experience matches what has already been widely reported about the prescriptive approach. Getting people back to the office on certain days with \u201crewards\u201d only works for a while. Free coffees, group lunches, and after-work drinks with coworkers all eventually lose their appeal. Companies see more success when they directly connect time in the office to existing workflows. For example, they can schedule regular team meetings, lunch-and-learns, and kickoffs on days with lower occupancy numbers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How to put occupancy and utilization into perspective<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Many of the companies we\u2019ve worked with are still in the early stages of finding ways to capture and leverage workplace and facility data that work best for them. From the start, we always tell them that both are important metrics, but you need to see them in a larger context to get actionable insights.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Capturing occupancy and utilization has value for many teams<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Many different teams may want to use this data, so when organizations standardize on a digital system to automate collection of accurate occupancy and utilization data, they can see a strong return on investment. In fact, occupancy and utilization are some of the few metrics with broad cross-team appeal.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Interestingly, we\u2019re seeing the direction of rightsizing differ between countries. Although there\u2019s been a lot of news recently about U.S. federal agencies reducing their real estate portfolios, work has largely returned to the office in India, and the companies we speak with who have staff there are looking to expand their footprints. Accurate occupancy data will help ensure these companies have productive spaces without overextending. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond portfolio planning, a workplace experience team can leverage the same numbers to level attendance throughout the working week or better match layouts to employee onsite behavior. If meeting rooms consistently see higher utilization numbers than individual desks, it may make sense to include more spaces for group work.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Metrics only make sense in context<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Businesses can run into problems when they try to see occupancy and utilization in isolation or as absolutes. Depending on the organization, low utilization may not be an issue.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We recently worked with a team that only comes into the office about once a month, which matches the nature of their work and position in the organization. They generally only work with one another, and when they need to work with other departments, they rely on established relationships and institutional knowledge.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the team\u2019s director, the situation is different for employees with less time at the company. They need and want to be in the office more often because it helps them develop their professional knowledge and networks.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Within the same company there are vastly different data sets between groups, but neither indicates a problem. Instead, they reflect the different ways teams use spaces to best match a variety of factors. The metrics matter, but never absolutely. Context is key.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
