JLL pilots Microsoft-connected workplace app

June 12, 2024

The best approach for modern organizations lies somewhere between always-on-site and fully remote — commonly known as hybrid workplaces. What’s less common? Defined in-office days for employees; according to Jones Lang LaSalle’s (JLL) 2024 Global Occupancy Planning and Benchmarking Report, only 15% of surveyed organizations define in-office days for individuals. This leads to space utilization issues or scheduling challenges — and if your organization has seat-sharing policies in place, employees might struggle to find a place to work upon arrival. Enter Microsoft Places, an AI-powered workplace app that uses data intelligence to help teams coordinate on-site schedules for a more seamless workforce experience. According to JLL, facilities management teams can create “adaptable, safe, healthy and resilient” workplaces with this app.
