CRE FM - IT

What is the

‘It’ factor in IT FM?

Slowly but surely, the hybrid work model
has become the norm for the IT sector. With
an ever-changing mix of employees showing

up to work daily in fully air-conditioned

buildings that need to be functional around
the clock, the FM team has its hands full.

Monitoring traffic

The in-time for employee buses
is 9 am every morning; before
this, the reception area, corridors,
washrooms, desks and chairs need
to be made clean. But this cleaning
process needs to be repeated
during the day; most housekeeping
teams don’t do this. If they do, we
can give a ‘wow’ feeling to facility
users.
The time before and after lunch,
as well as when employees sign
out at the end of the day, are also
high-traffic times. Depending upon
the size of washrooms and footfall,
we deploy the requisite amount
of manpower. Currently, we get
a rough estimate of washroom
traffic; we have tried out a footfall
counter for washrooms, which has
worked well.
