What is IWMS

Let’s first understand why we need an IWMS in the first place. There’s a lot that goes into managing a facility. Post covid there has only been more pressure added to maintaining a facility. Now let’s look at a basic scenario where you have to manage people coming in and out of your facility, their health status,  where they will sit, how will they take and much more. Add to this the needs of the facility itself things as how many visitors are in the facility, and whether are there some maintenance requirements that are needed. Often all these are divided among different workplace managers, who use different software systems to meet these requirements. This can cause delays in making decisions to solve issues. This is where your IWMS comes in, it solves all these issues with a simple unified solution. Veris One is an IWMS which seamlessly integrates all your management needs into one. Just one platform that provided you with all the information you need for managing your facility.

First Steps

The first thing that an IWMS would be used by your employees at your workplace would be for entering the workplace. This is where an electronic visitor management system comes into play. Logbooks are long gone. The need of the hour is something that is quick, efficient and secure, visitor management system does all that. Using the system you can send pre-invites, and have them do a contactless check-in through a QR code, health declaration and temperature screening will make sure that nobody is at a health risk. Integrating the access control system into your IWMS will make sure that you have full knowledge about your facility and that there are no trespassers. If anyone stays longer than their set time an overstay alert is triggered. Your security team can check on this person and make sure your workplace remains the same. Along with this, there are various other reasons you should use an integrated visitor management system to digitize your workplace:-

Sit Tight and Collaborate

How can you digitize seating and collaboration at your workplace? By integrating a desk booking software in your IWMS. In today’s hybrid workplace scenario space is limited and utilizing every bit of it efficiently is a top priority. But for your returning employees this could sound like some alarms. Where do they sit? Where are their friends? Where is their team sitting?

This is where the hot desk booking software comes in. Your employees can simply check the availability of the seat on a given date and time and book it. Do employees want to sit with their favourite co-workers? They can open the app, search the person’s name, and the map will navigate them to the person’s location, check the availability of seats and be done! You can also designate particular areas to particular teams. So for example you make rows 12 to 16 only available for your sales team, now only the sales team members can book it.  Ensuring that teams sit together and collaborate with ease. The software also allows you to book available meeting rooms. You can simply check the availability of the meeting room, select duration, agenda, and amenities and you are done!
