Native Neighborhoods Functionality for Space Plannning and Reserve

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

More and more, office tenants are moving to flexible workspaces that do not utilize assigned seating but rather assignment of employees to neighborhoods/zones or even entire "ecosystems".

While the concept of neighborhoods and zones have been around for a while, TRIRIGA does not have native support for this functionality within the application itself. Companies are looking for ways to assign people to a group of workspaces for the purposes of cost allocation, but the question of where somebody actually sits is left to the employee and what workpoints within the neighborhood are still available.

Even the scan-to-claim of a workspace is not necessary in this neighborhood model unless the occupancy is high enough that seating becomes scarce. Instead, with the understanding of what percentage of the employee population comes into the office, the space team can apply a occupancy factor.

For example, if roughly 20% of the workforce is coming in, then you could assign 3x the number of people compared to the number of workpoints to a neighborhood without running out of seats. In reality, some departments or business units might come into the office more regularly in which case the number of people assigned to a neighborhood might need to be adjusted up or down.

    This issue comes up quite a bit. It's a current high priority requirement for a new opportunity with Ring.
