In the rapidly changing world of work, organizations are facing intense pressure to redesign how their offices function. Hybrid work, flexible schedules, and shift in employee expectations mean that offices can no longer just be rows of desks and meeting rooms- they need to be dynamic, responsive, and efficient. That’s where ROOMZ comes in: a Swiss-engineered, smart workspace solution that makes office management seamless, sustainable, and data-driven.
At Al Zubair Group, we believe that workspace technology should remove friction, not add it. ROOMZ products align perfectly with that philosophy. Below, we explore how ROOMZ can help companies optimize space, reduce waste, and deliver better experiences for employees and stakeholders alike.
What Is ROOMZ?
ROOMZ is a workplace management system that blends smart hardware and intuitive software to give real-time visibility into workspace availability and usage. Some core components include:
- ROOMZ Displays: E-ink, wireless room signage outside each meeting room or desk. These displays show current and upcoming bookings, let users book or release directly from the screen, all without physical wiring.
- Presence Sensors: Detect when a room is actually being used (or not), allowing automatic release of unused bookings (“ghost meetings”).
- myROOMZ App: Mobile & desktop tool that allows employees to reserve rooms or desks in advance or on the fly. Useful for hybrid teams planning which days to work in the office.
- ROOMZ Advanced Analytics: Data dashboards showing actual usage, occupancy, popular rooms, underutilized spaces. Helps businesses make evidence-based decisions.
Why ROOMZ Matters for Modern Offices
1. Eliminate Confusion & Double Bookings
When every room has a display outside with up-to-date schedule info, no one wastes time wandering corridors. Booked rooms are clearly marked, upcoming meetings are shown, and rooms that aren’t being used get freed up. This clarity reduces frustration among employees and improves meeting punctuality.
2. Save Costs & Resources
Traditional room-booking systems often hide costs: wasted space, energy consumption, unused rooms, manual updates, or frequent hardware upgrades. With ROOMZ:
- The displays are energy-efficient and battery-powered (long life) so fewer replacements are needed.
- Less wiring and cabling means installation is faster and less invasive.
- Better utilization of real estate means space is used optimally, possibly reducing the need for more space or cutting down underused areas.
3. Enable Flexibility & Hybrid Working
Flexibility has become essential. Hybrid work means people come in on different days, use different types of spaces (meeting rooms, shared desks, huddle spaces). ROOMZ supports this by giving:
- The ability to book desks as well as rooms (desk booking via app and sensors)
- Real-time floor plan or building maps so staff can see what’s available at any moment.
- Tools to support hot-desking, shared desk allocation, or completely flexible seating models.
4. Data-Driven Decision Making
One of the most powerful aspects of ROOMZ is its analytics. Having usage data means office managers or leadership can make smart decisions:
- Which meeting rooms are over or underused
- Where desks are needed vs where they are being wasted
- When to redesign or repurpose spaces
- Energy savings (turning off lighting, AC in unused areas) and sustainability metrics
