Connected by Skanska - an application for office management

Innovations
In Q2 2018, Skanska will deliver to market its Spark office investment - the first building in which the company will introduce its in-house software, Connected by Skanska, dedicated to office tenants and office property managers. The solution combines the functionality of mobile phone applications, office space and receptions management platforms as well as collecting analytic data in the cloud. This integrated tool, which one can use via a smartphone and - in the case of selected features - even with a smartwatch, has been designed to help tenants’ employees and guests while they are working in or visiting the office building.
State-of-the-art technologies and solutions based on the Internet of Things are being increasingly used on the office and residential real estate markets. There is an extensive range of new smart solutions developed for both the office space and its infrastructure. - We are currently at such a level of development of the Internet of Things that common analogue solutions, such as normal office access cards may soon be obsolete. We want to not only connect people with the building more effectively
